Queerly Loving is a new collection of queer, genderqueer and/or polyamorous stories.  No tragic love stories here, no building up a romance and then killing someone off (I’m looking at you, Star Trek: Discovery), just lots of interesting worldbuilding and affectionate queer relationships. Each is a self-contained short story by a different author, but if you read it all one sitting, you’ll notice connections between them, and you’ll see themes of coming-of-age and dual identities. But most importantly, these are queer romances where no one dies tragically. Yes.

There is a second volume coming out, with different contributing writers, but also guaranteed no dead lovers!

One of my college friends has a piece in this collection, but this isn’t a sponsored post in any way. I even bought my copy myself, because that’s what you do when a old friend is in a book!
