basicaly, 2 YA authors got told by an agent that zie would represent them if they made one of the POW character (who happenned to be gay) straight.

They are asking for people to spread the story so that's what I'm doing.

PS: They also have long list of YA protagonists who are LGBT and/or of color.

Thank you for your support!

To continue to support YA fiction with LGBTQ characters and non-white characters, I have proposed creating Permanent Floating YA Diversity Book Clubs. If you wish to participate, the link will explain how to begin one, join one, or simply pass on the word. We are currently voting for the December selection.

I thought you would be interested to hear that we sold Stranger (aka "the Yes Gay YA novel") to Viking. Click on this link for a post with more details. Thank you so much for your support!
