Family Man between the covers for me, at last!

[ellenkushner]

 I'm a huge fan of Dylan Meconis'  (LJ:  quirkybird ) work!  Family Man, Bite Me, and, of course, Click! the one-shot sequel she did with Sara Ryan (to her Empress of the World, the best teen novel about being bi I know) . . . . But so far her new work, Family Man, has been available only online, and, well, I just don't have the bandwidth for all that clicking & screen-shifting.

So I am crazygrateful to pamola for letting me know that Dylan is even now raising money to produce the first two chapters of Family Man via pre-sales and incentives at her temple of commerce!

You know what you must do.  (As do I!)

And as a special offer to LJ readers only, I allow you to be the very first to know that DYLAN & SARA ARE DOING A BORDERTOWN COMIC! Yes, blackholly & I are even now going over the pencils of the 16 page 'script that will be part of the new Bordertown anthology, to make sure that there are enough pointy ears and studded leather jackets.  It's the only comic in the whole anthology.  It's good.

Adult novels about bi women

[elswhere1.livejournal.com]

KINFLICKS by Lisa Alther is okay, if I remember right, in a 60's/70's self-discovery kind of way. And there's Mary Renault's TWO FRIENDLY YOUNG LADIES. Sort of. (Bonus points for the houseboat, and for a very excellent farcical scene in the middle with people popping in and out of rooms and just missing various indiscretions, but marked down for a certain skirting of the subject and an excess of repressed British WTF-is-going-on-here-exactly?)

I like Empress of the World better than either of them, though.

Thanks, Els! Hey, can we count Virginia Woolf's ORLANDO?

Oh, sure, what the heck. Who knows what Orlando's about anyway?

Speaking of Virginia Woolf, though, I think the heroine of Michael Cunningham's THE HOURS is bi. I forget, though. (The modern-day heroine, that is. Virginia Woolf is in it, too, so I guess it counts as a novel about a bisexual woman in any case.)

Oh btw, that was me, that anonymous just above. Anonymous and too distracted to log in, apparently.
