New in Ellipsus: June 2026
June. Is there a sweeter ( and hotter 🔥) month? It has certainly been a busy one here at Ellipsus. In addition to the launch of Plus, we’ve been hard at work on making improvements to the tool (list view, anyone?), celebrating Pride with writers across our community, and tweeted at the Pope. What a time!
Here’s everything that happened at Ellipsus this month.
