It was also part of a summer special promotion with Bookshop.org called "Fearless and Fabulous: Queer heroes who fight back."Pride and Persistence isn’t just another story—it’s a rallying cry for anyone who’s ever felt silenced.Joe Chianakas, a karate Sensei and lifelong Karate Kid fan, has always yearned to see queer representation in his favorite stories. Motivated by the lack of representation, he took matters into his own hands. The result? A story that’s not only timely and enjoyable but also earned the endorsement of Cobra Kai creator Jon Hurwitz, who praised Chianakas’ work as “equal parts fresh, heartfelt, entertaining, and important.”Thank you for listening – be sure to subscribe for new episodes, leave a 5-star rating, and check out these important links below!📌 Important Links 📌Instagram:@joechianakas Threads: @joechianakasWebsite: joechianakas.weebly.comMust Love Books on Instagram and Facebook:@MustLoveBooksPodcastKrystle Hope on Instagram: @KrystleHopeThreads: @krystlehopeTikTok: @Huttslayer_HopeGoodReads: https://www.goodreads.com/krystlehopeSubstack: https://krystlehope.substack.comBook Podcast Connection Networking Group: @BookPodcastConnection🔒🎧 Join the Book Lovers community on Patreon: www.patreon.com/MustLoveBooksPodcastAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy | 37m 35s | ||||||
