Overview

Queer Love

To raise money for TransActual and Mermaids UK, Big Thinking Publishing created The Leaves Still Fallow: An Anthology of Queer Love – a queer anthology of love in many forms.

Submissions for this project are now closed. This page is here to celebrate the anthology and direct readers to where they can buy a copy.

About the book

What you’ll find inside

The Leaves Still Fallow is a celebration of Queer Love in all its forms – romance, friendship, found family, and the quieter, everyday acts of care that hold us up. The anthology has an autumnal theme.

  • Queer short stories (roughly 1500–5000 words) across a range of genres.
  • Personal non-fiction, essays and reflections on love, identity and community.
  • An “autumn aesthetic”.

The submissions came from various writers at different stages of their careers, bringing together diverse and passionate voices.
