I met Lee back in 2007, when we were both just starting out in the YA market, and he's got a website that's not only won awards, but enjoys pretty heavy traffic.
It's a blog that's specifically geared toward all things LGBTQ YA and children's fiction. He also talks about current issues and stuff, but the blog started out as a running list of all LGBT YA, middle-grade, and children's books.
For everyone here who's just published something, contact Lee to have your book listed at his blog.
NOTE: Lee only posts information with cover art about your book. He does not review books, but he allows visitors to his blog to post their own reviews in the comments section for each title he posts.
As of late, he's been posting mostly stuff about gender issues, news items, and writing conferences, but it's because there seems to be a dearth of LGBT YA titles being published nowadays.
So, yeah - small press authors, micro press authors, and indie authors are all welcome to get in touch with him. His blog enjoys massive traffic (I think he mentioned something along the lines of a million hits per month) and is also a great resource for everyone here.
I'm Here. I'm Queer. What the Hell Do I Read?
