Support The Uncrustables as we achieve our writing goals this month and raise some money for #GCLS! We're still pondering how to entice the masses into giving, but isn't having more sapphic and queer fiction out in the world rewarding enough?! Support the queer, author version of the Justice League!

Banned but not erased.
28% of all books banned for LGBTQ+ representation feature a transgender and/or genderqueer character.
These stories matter.

People with disabilities or who are neurodivergent appear in 10% of all banned books. Silencing these stories means erasing representation.
Every time we read, we push back against these efforts.

Protecting Sapphic Stories. As book bans rise across the US, GCLS stands with readers and writers to ensure these stories are recognized, celebrated, and never erased from our shelves.
At the Golden Crown Literary Society, we uplift sapphic and women-loving-women voices so they’re seen, celebrated, and never erased.
GCLS is excited to partner with SASS to promote protecting Sapphic Stories.

"We … write to heighten our own awareness of life. We write to lure and enchant and console others. We write to serenade our lovers. We write to taste life twice, in the moment, and in retrospection."
—Anaïs Nin, The Diary of Anaïs Nin, Vol. 5, 1954

Where can you find me next week at #GCLS? When I'm not in one of these places, I'll probably be supporting my friends or learning how to be a better writer! Come find me!
