#PrideReads

Hello! I’ve hooked arms with some lovely authors—Kathryn Sommerlot, J.P. Jackson, Kevin Klehr, and Nicki J. Markus—to brainstorm up a month of prompts for a Twitter hashtag about queer reading for Pride month.

So, starting June the first? Daily prompts about reading, writing, and queerness. Join us. Bring your books, authors, recommendations, and wish-lists for asexual, aromantic, bisexual, gay, genderqueer, intersex, lesbian, nonbinary, trans… well, you get the idea. It’s Pride, it’s books.

Join in, tag it #PrideReads, and lets see if we can’t make noise for some awesome books (and shine a light on some awesome opportunities for books we wish we saw more of.)

(Edit to add: I want to be extra-clear that when I say Queer or LGBTQIA+ I’m including Asexual, Aromantic, Pansexual, Nonbinary, Two-Spirit, and other identities that are far too often gatekept or missed by the queer community at large. The graphic here says queer or LGBTQIA+ and it’s important to me to make sure I’m clear that queer will always mean LGBTQIA2SP+ Etc.)
