~ ROOTED ~
queer codex
The ROOTED Queer Codex anthology edited by Lorenzo Herrera y Lozano is now available. It features poetry, short stories and visual art from 11 queer women and trans-identified artists. I have a short story in it and...
The cover is beautiful and the volume is amazing!

The other ROOTED artists are: Sharon Bridgforth, Samiya Bashir, Anel Flores, Lorenzo Herrera y Lozano, María Limón, Ana-Maurine Lara, Jennifer Margulies, Senalka McDonald, Wura Ogunji, Cheryl Coward and Matt Richardson.

The cover image is a still from a video by Wura.

For folks in Austin, you can pick up a copy at Resistencia Bookstore, 1801-A South 1st Street (at W. Annie). I think it will be on amazon.com soon. The ISBN number to order it from your local bookstore is: 978-0-9723910-4-7.

HOMO A GOGO





Aug 3 2006 5:29 AM

Hey Gaywad!
HOMO A GOGO IS NOW!!!!
It's that time of year again, and we expect to see all of you close-knit but far-flung homos here!There are 120 films, dozens of bands, and performers, spoken word, visual art, and the ever popular fashion show! The mind-blowing highlights include:

xxxJOHN CAMERON MITCHELL! Writer, director, ans star of Hedwig and the Angry Inch! He'll be speaking and showing a special sneek premiere of his new film, SHORTBUS!
Omigod! And DJing all night!

xxxVAGINAL DAVIS! The ferocious queen of punk drag; erotic provocateur and cultural antagonist! In my opinion, the most challenging and brilliant performer alive today! Serious!

xxxBOB MOULD AND THE BLOWOFF! Bob Mould of Husker Du and Rich Morel playing live and djing the most insane gay dance party you have ever seen!

xxxTHE GOSSIP! Spiritual crux of punk rock, duh.

Also featuring MICHELLE TEA, XIU XIU, HEY WILLPOWER, KATASTROPHE, DEADLEE, AMY RAY, BITCH, TENDER FOREVER, and countless more! Be there or forever suffer pangs of regret!
