I hear what you're saying. But at the same time I feel that the ideal condition would be for broader categories being better curated, so that you get romance novels with L and G and B and T and, for good measure, the rest of the QUILTBAG thrown in.
(I'd never have picked up your book if it wasn't yours, because a) I would not have found it, ever, and b) the romance marketing would have put me off.)
So short of having either two places for those books - a dedicated section *and* a mainstream one, or having a different way of accessing that content (so you *can* search for f/f but aren't condemned to a tiny shelf at the back of the store) I don't see how this can be resolved.
Also, more Welsh Music: Bring it On. My last discovery was Meinir Gwylim.
