upcoming LGBTQ issue of Crossed Genres – subs open until Sept 30

September 10th, 2009 · 1 Comment · sending out your work, submission

My blogging has seriously fallen off of late, but for mostly positive reasons: I’ve been making good progress on the novel project, and have also been trucking along on a short story due in October for an upcoming anthology (details on that when I’m sure it will all actually come together; haven’t heard an update lately).

In the meantime, if you write spec fiction that includes lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and/or queer themes, characters, etc., Crossed Genres is looking for your short story submission. Here’s the link:

LGBTQ Issue guidelines and details from Crossed Genres

Go get ‘em, tiger!

In an ironic twist, I probably never would have known about this EXCEPT for a dust-up about advertising; another SFF publication turned down Crossed Genres’ ad because of the “sexual content” — on further discussion, turns out the editor wants to support traditional marriage for procreation or something, which this issue would obviously ruin for everybody. [end of sarcasm]

For the curious, here are the details of the dust-up.
