Today is National Coming Out Day!

It's also Freedom to Read Day, aka the last day of Banned Books Week.

This feels right — because the main reason they try to ban books is to keep people from dreaming they could ever come out.

Thanks to everyone who's been reposting my stuff. Remember in the early days of social media when we'd be so excited by what we saw that we'd retweet it? That's since fallen off as we've gotten used to it, but that's how we leverage the power of SM. Please help me reach a wider audience
