Golden Crown

[catherineldf]

Looks like I'll actually be on programming at the Golden Crown Literary Society Conference in late July/early August. Don't know what I'm doing for sure yet but figure if the programming chair wants to know when I'm showing up, that's significant. I'll post when I find out.
GLSC is a fairly new writers/readers organization. Here's what it does - "The Golden Crown Literary Society (GCLS) is an exciting, dynamic entity which brings together publishers, distributors, authors, and readers of lesbian fiction in a cooperative effort to support and foster quality lesbian literature."
This will be the first time I've attended their writing conference (http://www.gclscon.com/).
And "Crave" is even up for a Goldie Award for lesbian erotica. Fingers crossed. :-)
The nominees are:
"Bed: New Lesbian Erotica," edited by Victoria A. Brownworth Harrington Park Press
"Crave: Tales of Lust, Love and Longing Catherine Lundoff Lethe Press
"Entangled Lives: Memoirs of 7 Top Erotica Writers" edited by Marilyn Jane Lewis Alyson Books
"Erotic Interludes 5: Road Games" Stacia Seaman & Radclyffe, Eds. Bold Strokes Books
"Fantasy: Untrue Stories of Lesbian Passion" Therese Szymanski & Barbara Johnson, Eds. Bella Books
"Focus Of Desire" Kim Baldwin Bold Strokes Books
"In Deep Waters: Cruising The Seas" Karin Kallmaker & Radclyffe Bella Books
"Red Light" JD Glass Bold Strokes Books
"The Mammoth Book of Lesbian Erotica" Barbara Cardy Carroll & Graf Publishers
"Under This Cowgirl's Hat" S. A. Clements, Ed. Torquere Press
"Winds Of Fortune" Radclyffe Bold Strokes Books

This is an awesome list of nominees. I would like to see "Crave" win something. And after "The Mammoth Book of New Lesbian Erotica" (edited by Barbara Cardy, not the one edited by Rose Whatsername) failed to win a Lambdalit Award in the "Erotica" category this year, it would be nice to see it win a Golden Crown.

I'm trying not to be a scab here. for the rest of the day, I will honour the strike.
