The simple truth is that authors like making people squirm. If this weren't the case, all novels would be filled completely with cute bunnies having birthday parties.
This month technically ends June 30th, but it'll likely be difficult to post for the pride event on Sunday due to Review Day - you can't publish works during that part of the weekend. If you have a work you plan on publishing through the Publishing Center, try to do it before Review Day. You can also post the work directly to the thread in a spoiler, or link it from another part of site.

Tagging @AstralHunter, @RavenLord, @GodHatesShane, @ScarlettFire, @Willard, @tishi, @hiraeth, @AmadeusW, @Mess, and @manilla, since you all signed up for a spot but haven't submitted anything yet! There's no pressure to post if you don't want to, but I wanted to make sure you all knew ahead of Review Day.
"The Imperial need for control is so desperate because it is so unnatural. Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear. Remember that." -Karis Nemik
Ahh, I don't think I'll be able to get anything done! Work has been really busy. I'll try, but no promises. (I'll just post it in a spoiler, if I do get it done)
I have finally finished my contribution! My poor character reflects on each of the four fellow tenants he has met, since he finds himself infatuated with each of them. XD
The work in question is a post for the following storybook (the link leads to the post): • In Service to the Hierophant

It's technically 3:15 now, which means it's no longer June, but I doubt a technicality like that really matters when it's the spirit of things that count. Besides, when an exact time isn't specified for a YWS event, it defaults to the most appropriate time in Pago Pago, Samoa, which is at least twelve hours behind my time zone.
But the Fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. — Paul the Apostle
Winter is inevitable. Spring will return eventually, and AstralHunter with it.
This event has now come to a close, by the way! I've put together a list of all of the works in the very first post of this thread, so check that out if you want some queer pride going into July.
The badge should be coming out in the next few days. <3
