If you’ve never seen Dorothea Lange’s photographs of the World War II internment camps and the Japanese-Americans who were imprisoned there, today is a good day to see them and to commit to making sure this never happens again.

At the risk of not following instructions, I helped work on this hilarious webnovel out today — think The Princess Bride meets Little Mermaid but make it gay — that fits this description pretty damn closely.
But huge caveat that heroine & love interest would both be dudes.
