One you've heard me talk about before, the other you haven't. Let's start there. Check out the Hope & Love Anthology This one is supporting the Milwaukee LGBT Community Center. There are a ton of stories in this anthology. It looks so good and it's for a good cause. There is still time to check out the upcoming facebook release party for this one (all the pertinent links are in the link I provided).

I don't have to tell the readers of my blog the struggles and outright horrors far too many LGBT youth (and adults for that matter) face. The amount of LGBT youth who end up homeless is far too much. I've championed many children/youth causes over the years. I firmly believe that if children have a safe, loving place to grow up in, so many of our other problems would lessen. (Of course thinking about this anthology reminds me how sad I am I no longer live in WI).

So click that link if you want to help out. And while you're at it, you can also check out this one as well. I've blogged about Project Fierce before because it's the one my story is in in and it's doing pretty much the same thing as Hope & Love only in Chicago. You can check it out here. Project Fierce: Everyone Deserves a Home

Two great anthologies, one very important cause.

This song by Abney Park puts me in mind of what Strange, the protagonist in my story, Nothing But Himself felt like at the beginning of the story. I suspect it cuts close to the bone for many of these kids.
