The Light Looks Like Me

By: Young Authors of Shout Mouse Press, with a foreword by Malinda Lo

The Light Looks Like Me is an anthology of work from young people across the LGBTQ+ spectrum exploring what love looks like to them, in all its iterations. Their explorations, from young people aged 13-24 in the DC/Maryland/Virginia area, move from poetry to prose to comics to art and back again to poetry. For these young authors, love isn't just love - it's light, and their pieces find that light everywhere: in their friends and family, their communities, and bubbling through their brilliant selves.

Little District Books is thrilled to partner with Shout Mouse Press and the authors of The Light Looks Like Me for a celebration of their work on August 30th! Find more information here.
