All the more reason to support indie publishers! Like @arcbeatlepress.bsky.social, which I am proud to call home!
Profiles in cowardice from the publishing industry.

Myself and many other queer independent authors are out there putting our work into the world whether publishers have the good sense and guts to or not.

Support indie & self-published queer authors.
Depressing news reported at @lgbtqnation.com:
Publishers are “stepping back” from LGBTQ+ books amid bans & the current GOP president

If you've read our Christmas special "Aisle be Watching" you know how wild and in depth it is, and turns out getting it out and Cwej30 Issue #6 out in the same month was a stretch too far for us. We didn't want to rush what's coming in #6, so look for that later this month!
