About Today’s Show

Queer representation in stories and literature is starting to make its way into the mainstream market and big publishing houses. It's still a long road before we see LGBTQ+ books being promoted by big publishing houses as the new norm but with the help of today's guest, we're on track to getting there!

On today's show, Calan Breckon has a sit-down with author Robbie Couch to talk about why queer representation is so important in literature and how he managed to find success going the traditional publishing house route with Simon & Schuster.
