## Resource

Our hosts, Chris and Amy, are very thankful for the big gay blanket this month as they explore the frozen Wingspan Continent with Tyrus and his many friends - brrr! Come along with them on this very queer, quintessentially-teen fantasy adventure that’s oozing heart and style in equal amounts. While Owlbound By Winter’s Beak may be author Wesley E. Joseph’s first novel, we cannot deny its absolute charm and impressive world building. You’ll find yourself lost amidst the eternal winter our hero and his friends face - perhaps you’ll befriend an owl of your very own to help you on your journey? If not, we hope this episode can act as a suitable traveling companion. Thank you to Kevin MacLeod for the use of our theme song, 'Werq.' You can find more of their music on https://www.incompetech.com/ .
