I can’t believe it’s been 7 months, but more so, I am still blown away by the generous, kind, & loving support of my friends and family. Thank you to everyone who has bought the book, shared it with friends and on social media, and/or left a review wherever you purchased it. I’m indebted to you all.

🎉 Today SHAME-SEX ATTRACTION is 7 months old! 🎉 I’m so grateful that these stories have resonated with survivors (and queers and trans folx in general) and that together we have been able to shed light on #conversiontherapy.

I’ve already received almost all the submissions, and boy o boy, these stories 👏 are 👏 wild 👏. From sincerely hilarious to terribly heartbreaking and beyond, these stories will chronicle the efforts of Christian schools’ attempts to eradicate queerness on their campuses. 3/4
