Bree's Books
1. Are you LGBTQ+? If so, how?
"Yes, I am, ace/demi."
2. What books of yours have LGBTQ+ representation, and what rep do they have?
"I have three so far: Finding Delaware features bi and gay characters. Crossing Arizona features ace/demi characters. Pretty Broken Doll features gay characters."
3. Why do you think LGBTQ+ rep in books is important?
"Speaking from personal experience, it took seeing myself represented in books to realize what I was and that I wasn't alone. It had LGBTQ+ rep in books has helped me find a community and people that I can relate to, and I hope to give back that sense of belonging in my writing."
4. What got you into writing?
"I started with poetry when I was a kid, just trying to put my feelings into words. I've always been a reader, and my love for reading inspired me to create my own stories."
5. Who is a queer figure you look up to?
"I have a bunch! Bella Ramsey, Elliot Page, and Laverne Cox, to name a few."
