what the hell
It's an edit I'm working on. Mayrin is a yandere,, he like killed Disco for his beloved Hoshi. Unfortunately by tommorow he would have forgotten he did it.
that's cool though, i don't think we had much on them in high school though i left that over ten years ago so i can't say. but just that yeah, i agree with vris :3
Oh yeah I remember it, had a friend who was mad about it (I think she got like 3 editions of one book in the series bc LE's lol). Haven't read, but Yukio Mishima is a favourite when it comes to lgbtq+ stuff.
Bruh I'm obsessed with Carry-on. Does she know there's a sequel?
I haven't finished Carry on or read Wayward son.Ohh yeah, Wayward Son. I think it was that one she wanted to have like one of every LE of aha. Ah well all good I have my obsessions too
WHO THE F RATED MY BOOK ONE STAR IM RIOTINGWriting in the genre comes with its own challenges. Even though it is growing in popularity it is still considered niche and you need to tick the right boxes to be taken seriously. There is also the challenge that your work needs to be representing the demographic properly. I have been working on a sci-fi military series for seven years and I'm banking on people being willing to read a long war story with an arrogant out and proud thirtysomething warlord as the protagonist.
The project I have been working on today is in a completely different vein. It's a mother-daughter comedy. The daughter is engaged to another woman, which is the initial source of friction between the two of them. I could see it only taking me a month or so to write and it would easily have more chance of commercial success than the sci-fi series I have dedicated so many years to.
LGBT YA fiction is certainly easier to come by now than it was when Sheila and I were growing up. The first book fitting that description I read was a coming of age story called Edinburgh by Alexander Chee. I bought it secondhand on the Amazon marketplace when I was eighteen. Most LGBT work I read then came from independent publishers specialising in the genre. It was hard to just walk into a book shop or a library and just find it sat on a shelf.
I read Carry On in 2017. According to GoodReads I rated it one star.

That sounds like an interesting read.
I read LGBT YA for research purposes and I can't say I'm a fan. Most of what I've read feels too idealistic, pushes a specific agenda, or often makes the character's sexuality the focus of the entire plot. I have two of my own novels aimed at this age group that I feel like I am endlessly redrafting. One focuses on male body image issues in teen athletes (protagonist is on his schoolI'd definitely read your stories
I just think a lot that's niche these days are also mainstream boxes-ticked and people are a bit afraid to read/write otherwise. Just my onion and from what I've seen being borrowed as well, would be nice to see some more..dunno just more non-fantasy stuff for all ages and just not that same person with the same illustrations either. I've definitely seen some good books in the genre for smaller kids that tackles various topics in a good way explaining though so that's a good start, that needs to be normalized and not feeling forced to either regardless if someone writes lgbtq+ books often or not.
And yeah, I agree it's easier to come by even though I'm probably more for the classics/adult category books rather than the fantasy that's out for youth (eg. I loved Death in Venice and Memoirs of Hadrian, though they'd be more of a niche as well and yeah, Mishima of course as well as old/new non-fiction etc. etc.).
Glad you think so! Fingers-crossed others think so too. He (Brahms) has lived in my head for many years now and no matter how many times I have tried to quit writing his story he keeps dragging me back in.

I have two of my own novels aimed at this age group that I feel like I am endlessly redrafting. One focuses on male body image issues in teen athletes (protagonist is on his schoolfootballsoccer team) and the other focuses on teenage gang warfare. The latter I almost tried to pitch to someone in TV some years back but I chickened out.
Although one book in this genre that I would recommend is Will Grayson, Will Grayson by John Green and David Levithan.
