Genreville: "The agent offered to sign us on the condition that we make the gay character straight, or else remove his viewpoint and all references to his sexual orientation."
Let me just repeat that:

(Alt!link to the post on rachelmanija's DW if you'd rather read and comment over here: "Sherwood Smith and I have a post up at Genreville, about how an agent offered to represent a YA novel we'd written on the condition that we make a gay character straight or remove him from the book.")
