Jamies Dead
Jamies Dead
Jamies Dead (they/them) is a 17-year-old queer, non-binary, emo kid from Alexandria, VA. “Love Letter To Jamie” and “Something Other Than Heartache” are their first published written pieces. Other publications include 5 EP and 2 LP music releases under the same name. They spend most of their time writing prose or lyrics, and listening to music. Jamies is hoping to become a full-time writer/musician in the future and they hope that this book and the pieces within help people understand it’s okay to be themselves and that art can come from a happy place.
Available for preorder. Product will ship in June.
By the young writers of Shout Mouse Press
Young people from across the LGBTQ+ spectrum came together to explore what love looks like to them, in all its iterations. This anthology was dreamed as a response to book bans nationwide targeting literature featuring LGBTQIA+ characters and themes, and the related silencing of these voices and conversations. With the help of local queer teaching artists, young writers and artists responded to that call through poetry, prose, comics, art, and more. Their work shows us the love that they find everywhere: in their friends and family, their communities, and bubbling through their brilliant selves.
This project was created in partnership with The DC Center for the LGBT Community, Sasha Bruce Youthwork, SMYAL, and Split This Rock.
