FOR WRITERS AND READERS: National Idahobit Day

IDAHOBIT

FOR WRITERS & READERS Today’s writer topic comes from QSFer J. Scott Coatsworth: Today is the International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia, Intersexism and Transphobia. So I thought I’d ask authors and readers what you would like to see more of – the positive side rather than the negative one. Please note whether you are discussing gay, bi, intersex or trans/gender fluid/endby characters and stories, and what you wanna see – the kinds of characters or plots etc that are lacking.
