Welcome to Volume two of Let's Say Gay!

We are an anti-censorship publication born from the suppression and silencing of LGBTQ+ narratives. Radical increases in book bans, discriminatory educational policies, and vitriolic waves of intolerance towards gender identity are stigmatizing queerness. But the LGBTQ+ community isn't going anywhere.

We are proud of our lives, proud of our identities, and we, this literary journal, are proud of our young artists. LSG! is devoted to creating space for queer youth to express themselves, share their art, and tell their stories - because we don't believe that anyone should have to choose between being true to themselves and being safe.

Things are not always easy for the Blanchard family of Daihmler, Alabama. Over the last few years they've experienced more than their share of tribulations, even for a family of witches. Through the many ups and downs they have always had each other, but that was threatened at the end of Book Two as one of their own suddenly disappeared from a family cookout.

In the third novel of The Blanchard Witches series, the story picks up where PRODIGAL DAUGHTERS left off. The family is shocked to have just witnessed one of their own disappear right before their eyes, but there is little time to react as more Blanchard vanish from existence. Those who remain must search the past to find their loved ones. They will encounter relatives they have only heard about through family lore while facing delicate challenges in unfamiliar worlds. And someone will make a mistake which will alter the future of the Blanchard family forever.

You don’t want to miss this one! It’s when everything changes. Join the Blanchard as they face one of the greatest foes they've come up against...time.

A practical and highly accessible guide for those navigating society as a trans person or trying to gain understanding of the trans experience, from psychologist, content creator, and LGBTQ+ advocate Jamie Raines, with over one million YouTube subscribers.

Hey, I'm Jamie, a 29-year-old trans guy from the UK. I've been transitioning for 12 years now after realizing I was trans (by accident!) at sixteen years old. I knew I was a boy since the age of four, but realized while growing up that I was different. It was only in my teens that I found the words to express who I was and what I needed to do. Since then, I've been on testosterone for more than a decade. I've also had top and bottom surgery and legally changed my sex, so I know a few things about the transitioning process and being trans!

I want to welcome you to The T in LGBT where you can explore and learn about so many topics surrounding gender identity: realizing you're trans, starting hormones, considering surgery, and everything in between. Whether you're questioning your own identity and are looking for advice on certain stages of transition, or whether you're wanting to learn about the trans experience to support someone or understand allyship, I hope this book can be your one-stop guide to everything trans related.

And don't just take my word for it either; this book is packed full of advice, tips, and the personal stories of a range of trans voices, because no one journey is the same.

Not all love stories are the same.

Stanley, at nearly eight inches and a girth like a tin can, he was well above average. He had a slight curve, but it had only seemed to help him over the years and not hinder him. He was proud and carried himself as such when he was out and about. Stanley was attached to a man who just didn’t seem to understand the proper way to care for him—or at least Stanley hadn’t met the piece that would make him override his human.

Sherry was harder to measure but kept herself trimmed up and was tighter than she should have been at her age. She did like taking care of herself, though, and that really was the best way to stay in shape. She has a freckle that she finds adorably perfect for her, although rarely do men notice when they are down there. Not that she complains, but it would be nice to have someone look at her from time to time and appreciate her beauty; at least her human had taken notice and tries to show her off when she can.

Stanley and Sherry were attached to two people who didn’t know that their attraction to each other wasn’t their own. Cum Shots offers a snapshot of the love between Stanley and Sherry and how sometimes, no matter how much you love someone, you just have to walk away.

Perfect for fans of Adam Silvera and Becky Albertalli, Mason Deaver's stunning debut will rip your heart out before showing you how to heal from tragedy and celebrate life in the process.

Some coming out stories are hard, some ugly, and some good. All are important. By shining the light onto these experiences, we hope to contribute to the positive ripple effects of progress
