October 11, 2013 is the 25th Anniversary of National Coming Out Day. I'm preparing my second annual "coming out stories" podcast, which will be available on Monday, October 14. In fact, I'm giving you a little snippet from one of my conversations in this episode.

I encourage you to celebrate this day by telling someone you love and support them and accept them for who they are - gay or straight. Take advantage and seize the day. You'll be glad you did.
