On Dec. 8, I announced the table of contents for Beyond Binary: Genderqueer and Sexually Fluid Speculative Fiction — an anthology edited by yours-truly, to be published by Lethe Press in 2012. The book hasn’t exactly been a secret project or anything; I’ve been working on it for a goodly chunk of 2011, soliciting stories here, holding open submissions there, and digging through queer speculative fiction everywhere I could find it. I hadn’t discussed the project in this space yet, though, mostly by virtue of the fact that it was still in-progress.
However, it seems high time to do so now. The book is put together, the table of contents is official, the massive reading binge is finished (and oh, what a reading binge it was).
So, this thing I’ve been working on.
[A short rumination of the theme of the book, plus some recommended reading.]
