This is more general but if you know/see and LGBTQ+ editor hosting a webinar on similar topics or posting blogs, follow them and read up!
I find learning from others in the community and talking to them can be a good way to learn, on top of any nonfiction texts.
Q10: @rainbowcrate.bsky.social does a great job at getting books from a variety of LGBTQIA+ people. I love reading queer books from queer authors.
My favorites so far are:
◽The Baker's Thief
◽The Sunbearer Trials
And I have so many more in my to-read mountain!
