I am hosting a topic specialized instance that's open to the public, it's literature.cafe
it's a lil empty right now but adding more comms and federating some communities into it
It's for book lovers and writers (and really anyone else)

Looks like it's working now. Go ahead and announce it, and then I'll add it to the list.

@cacheson My bad. It's down for a bit right now, but I'll post when it's running smoothly. Lemmy is a nightmare to get setup.

Sounds good, and good luck with it. :)
