Help get #LGBTQ fiction into teens’ hands! Support this kickstarter by pledging $10 and get an ebook copy when the anthology comes out, $25 and get the ebook and physical copy of the book, or as little as $1 to show your support (or more if you choose). 10 of the 12 stories have queer main characters, including the lesbian with magical powers in my short story "Protection." We need your help to make this a reality. Happy Pride! https://goo.gl/0RNUPg You can read an excerpt from my short story Protection here: http://www.michaelmjones.com/schoolbooks-sorcery-kickstarter-day-5/ https://goo.gl/SzKr8n #lgbtqYA #LGBTQbooks #LGBTQpride #LGBT #LGBTQ #lgbtqfiction #cherylrainfield #YAwriter #LGBTQwriter #booknerdigans #bookworm #ireadya #yalit #yabooks

I just wove rainbow shoelaces into my running shoes so that they are not only out and proud shoes, but they are slip on shoes. (grinning) The weaving of shoelaces is a technique I still remember from grade three or four. #cherylrainfield #YAwriter #LGBTQwriter #booknerd #bookworm #ireadYA #survivor #feminist #lgbtqia #LGBTQ #rainbow #rainbowshoelaces https://www.instagram.com/p/B3PTNThA4yl/?igshid=1lv92yi0yenhz

Picture of an excited, happy author who just put the final touches on her manuscript for her fabulous agent Jennifer Wills, and has to hug her dog and tell you all! (beaming) And in a happy coincidence my friend Kathy just dropped off a cauliflower pizza which I now get to have as a celebration! #cherylrainfield #YAwriter #LGBTQwriter #booknerd #bookworm #ireadYA #survivor #feminist #YAlit #YAbooks #bookstagram #yaauthorsofinstagram #yawritersofinstagram #survivorthriver #survivorwarrior https://www.instagram.com/p/Bz_EPmtgtiZ/?igshid=wb9tkfdptbjn

You deserve to treat yourself the way you treat a friend. It's true!

I had to take a break from editing my LGBTQ YA manuscript to get some groceries, and I bumped into my gay neighbor wearing lots of rainbows who put a rainbow Lei around my neck, and we wished each other happy Pride. It's always nice to have those kind of interactions. And of course I wore my Nobody Knows I'm a Lesbian t-shirt to the grocery store! (I think the T is funny.) It's hot out there! If you're out for Pride, don't forget your sunscreen. And have fun! It is so affirming and celebratory to be surrounded by the LGBTQ community and to see we're not alone. Community and visibility matters! 🌈 #cherylrainfield #YAwriter #LGBTQwriter #booknerd #bookworm #ireadYA #survivor #feminist #lgbtqia #LGBTQ #lgbtqiapride #lgbtqiabooks #yalgbtq https://www.instagram.com/p/BzDvZONgrL1/?igshid=1fmyve4uym8c8

Happy Pride Month fellow #LGBTQIA people! 🌈 Some of you may not know that I have six books published - STAINED; SCARS; HUNTED; PARALLEL VISIONS; DRAGON SPEAKER: THE LAST DRAGON; and SKINWALKERS: WALKING BOTH SIDES. They're all #YAlit. The first two are YA suspense and all the others are fantasy, including the last two which are hi-lo (high interest, low vocabulary). The ones that have my strongest voice, #LGBTQIA characters, and that deal with trauma and healing are the first four, though I feel like they all have small pieces of my soul. #cherylrainfield #YAwriter #LGBTQwriter #booknerd #bookworm #ireadYA #survivor #feminist #YAlit #YAbooks #yaauthorsofinstagram #YAauthor #yalgbtq #Yasuspense #yafantasy #bookstagram #bookrecs #bookrecommendations https://www.instagram.com/p/ByLO6zSAvKx/?igshid=1oqj23gc7poa6

My friend and neighbour Denyse took some creative photos of me and my books today. I have so many that I think I'll post some over the next few days. It was fun, and I really liked how they turned out! #cherylrainfield #YAwriter #LGBTQwriter #booknerd #bookworm #ireadYA #survivor #feminist #YAlit #YAbooks #bookstagram #bookrecs #bookrecommendations #booklove #booknerd #yaauthors #authorsofinstagram #yaauthorsofinstagram #YAbooksmentalhealth https://www.instagram.com/p/ByI-rtUgNl-/?igshid=s0to145u1vht
