When I put A Path of Endless Crossroads on a Pride bundle, a part of me wondered if I shouldn't. The story is about a society of warrior-mages that forbids emotions; there's only 1 visibly queer person in the first book bc everyone has their head down and their mouth shut. It's only in book 2

Here's an entire giant list of trans books that you should buy at full price during Pride Month. More than that, if the option to tip the authors exists, you should give them more.

Okay friends! Since others have expressed an interest in doing this themselves, I'm going to be tagging my weekly #authorart so everyone who wants to join in can reply or QP and show off their own efforts. Let us see your characters! (weekends probably?)
