🚀 Why isn’t everyone talking about #TheFirstOut?

A Wattpad reader’s review stopped me in my tracks: “This book is a hidden gem.” 💎

As #PrideMonth celebrates queer joy and resilience, let’s amplify stories that matter. The First Out is a fierce, heartfelt romance about identity, courage, and finding your place—perfect for readers craving authentic #LGBTQ rep.

@Wattpad #wattpad just published a list of LGBTQ+ stories — The First Out wasn’t included.

Not every story can be featured, but if a heartfelt coming-out story with strong engagement didn’t qualify, it’s fair to ask: what does?

We talk about inclusion. Let’s also talk about how we’re included — and who gets left out.
