Welcome to June’s photo challenge! This month is all things Pride as it’s (not really globally, but a lot of people go all out this month) Pride Month.
Please remember this is strictly a HP/JKR free zone. A hate free zone. And there is no supporting of toxic authors from me whatsoever (toxic can encompass a lot of things).
As always, interpret these prompts however you would like to! And don’t forget to use #LMSPride2023 so I can see your photos, too!
This is also a giveaway challenge! If you post using the above hashtag (and post queer books of course) then you’ll go into the draw to win AUD$30 worth of queer books (as long as book depository/amazon ship to you). Queer books only will be accepted in this challenge.
Show off a stack of LGBTQ books!
