Given the current climate in the US about LGBTQIA, why do you think Heated Rivalry is so popular? I write LGBTQIA scripts, and I've had some concerns about how they would be received.

I actually like the sounds of that of how you actually write about the LGBTQA Community like that Not many people do I actually wrote an idea that I had on my wall on here Just a little idea that I had about something and the idea that I had had of what I wrote on my wall on here One of the characters in the story that I wrote is actually Has A Couple Of gay characters
All my novels have gay characters, but the first two have cisgender, heterosexual protagonists. However, both my screenplays, one adapted from my novel, Edge of Smoke, have LGBTQIA protaonists. My second screenplay was supposed to have been my next novel, but after the first one won awards, I decided to write it as a screenplay first. Now, I find that I am working primarily on screenplays. There is an audience for LGBTQ film. Since 10% (possibly more with bisexuals and transgender) of the population is estimated to be LGBTQ and along with allies, there is definately an audience. I'm just surprised how mainstream and popular Heated Rivelry has been. It gives me hope.
