Plan for Pride Month this June with award-winning authors TJ Klune, Casey Mcquiston, and Mark Oshiro.
TJ Klune is the New York Times and USA Today–bestselling, Lambda Literary Award-winning author of The House in the Cerulean Sea, The Extraordinaries, and more, including his latest The Bones Beneath My Skin. Being queer himself, Klune believes it’s important—now more than ever—to have accurate, positive queer representation in stories. Audience members agree that Klune is an engaging speaker who really connects with them.
Casey McQuiston is a #1 New York Times–bestselling author of romantic comedies, including One Last Stop, Red, White & Royal Blue, I Kissed Shara Wheeler, and The Pairing. Red, White & Royal Blue was adapted into a movie in 2023 and released on Amazon Prime. Casey was named on the 2022 Time100 Next List. Casey’s talks focus on queer representation in literature and everyday life, sharing their personal experiences and knowledge with all audiences.
Mark Oshiro is the award-winning author of young adult books and the co-author (with Rick Riordan) of the #1 New York Times Bestseller and #1 Indie Bestseller The Sun and the Star: A Nico di Angelo Adventure. His latest, Jasmine Is Haunted, is a novel of ghosts, grief and the friends who make it all ok. Mark delivers compelling talks on their experiences as an openly queer person of color in publishing, and numerous original keynotes, including the experience of co-writing with Rick Riordan.
