Flamboyants: The Queer Harlem Renaissance I Wish I'd Known | 
pickSuch an inspiring collection of essays/tributes to icons of the Harlem Renaissance. Johnson hits on his themes so well and I'm desperate to read more from him now. The 'I Wish I'd Known' is especially relevant as this collection is aimed and at YA audience and the power in reading these stories as an adult is palpable but as inspiration to young queer creatives it is just beyond. So grateful that this one is in the world.
everlocalwest Commenting to add that I feel one million years old because the Litsy image editor hates me so much. We are at war with each other. What even is this?!?!? 2mo
rubyslippersreads I find it much easier to edit my images in PicsArt or PicCollage (both free) before uploading them to Litsy. 2mo
everlocalwest @rubyslippersreads it happens when I upload them - they are normal pics, oriented correctly with no text over the image and then I upload and bam! weirdness! I decided a while back to just lean into it. It makes me eccentric and interesting! lol 2mo
