The Outer Alliance

As a member of the Outer Alliance, I advocate for queer speculative fiction and those who create, publish and support it, whatever their sexual orientation and gender identity. I make sure this is reflected in my actions and my work.
I am one of those who create queer speculative fiction, although I have no easy excerpts from "Heartwood" to share with you today. However, I can tell you that "Heartwood" focuses on the relationship between a human spacefaring pirate and her planet-bound alien lover. Also, the as-yet-untitled story I'm currently writing involves queer men in an alternate Victorian England.
Although it is not speculative, I'd like to share with you my one published lesbian poem: "Ireland, A Sapphic Poem."
And, finally, I'd like to recommend Jacqueline Carey's Santa Olivia for those seeking an overwhelmingly positive portrayal of a queer relationship. Trust me. (You can read my review of the novel at Green Man Review.)
