I doubt very much I could make it down to New York City for the ceremony, but knowing the fabulous Mx Justin Vivian Bond is hosting makes me wish there was a way to make it happen.
Apparently there was a record number of submissions this year, which is exactly what I like to hear. While I have not had the pleasure of reading most of them, many are on my to-read list . . . a few are certainly on there now. Highlights for me are . . .
- Sodom Road Exit by by Amber Dawn (Lesbian Fiction)
- The House of Impossible Beauties by Joseph Cassara (Gay Fiction)
- Confessions of the Fox by Jordy Rosenberg (Transgender Fiction)
- Invasions by Calvin Gimpelevich (Transgender Fiction)
