This week saw the official release of The Queer South: LGBTQ Writers on the American South, a project I’ve been working on for the past two years. The final product has 63 different writers and some incredible nonfiction and poetry in a book with a stunning cover (the handiwork of Hollie Chastain, who also did the cover art for He Will Laugh).
You can order the anthology from Sibling Rivalry Press directly at: http://siblingrivalrypress.bigcartel.com/product/the-queer-south-lgbt-writers-on-the-american-south-douglas-ray-editor
Here are two blurbs about the book:
Think about it: When have you been in the South and not had a queer experience, in any sense of that word? It’s got to be the queerest space on earth. Matter of fact, go ahead and strike Queer from the title of this book. These writers are talking about the The South, period.
