fireunLadies and Gentlemen, Distressing Aberration in the Corner,
This year I am participating in the Clarion West Write-a-thon. Why is this important and interesting? The Write-a-thon raises money for Clarion West, which is a non-profit literary organization that exists to support writers of speculative fiction. A big part of that is they are very interested in equal opportunity for writers, regardless of race or gender. As someone who just spent (is spending) a heap of time on an anthology highlighting female protagonists and female authors, this is a Big Deal for me. If you would like to read up on Clarion West, venture forth in this direction. If you are an author who would like to participate, or if you would like to support the Write-a-thon by sponsoring one of the writers, please go here. I would love if some of you would be willing to sponsor me in this. My fingers will fly over the keyboard in your honor!
Spread the word!
