    Why I Wrote A Queer Kind of Hallelujah

    Some books start as whispers. Others, as screams. A Queer Kind of Hallelujah was both—a cry from a part of me that had long been silenced, and a quiet anthem for anyone who’s ever been told that their truth made them unholy. Set in a small Texas town where gossip is gospel and boys who

    Not the Plan, But the Point” I believe LGBTQ+ stories deserve to exist on the page—not as punchlines, sidekicks, or cautionary tales—but as full, complex lives with agency, nuance, and joy.
