Book Launch: SHINE OF THE EVER

By turns tender and punk-tough, SHINE OF THE EVER (Interlude Press, 11/5/19) is a literary mixtape of queer voices out of 1990s Portland. This collection of short stories explores what binds a community of queer and trans people as they negotiate love, screwing up, and learning to forgive themselves for being young and sometimes foolish.
