By the way, if you'd like to share more of your stories, I run a publication on Medium called Prism & Pen, which exists to amplify queer stories and voices.
We would be happy to help connect you with more readers. We’re by no means one of the power hitters in the Medium infosphere, but some of our stories do get fairly widely read.
If that could be helpful to you, we'd be pleased to be of service.
