  • GCLS Author Guest Blog: SHELLEY THRASHER

    I’ve never met Shelley Thrasher, but hers is definitely not an unfamiliar name.  It seemed like every time I opened the front cover of a book from Bold Strokes Books – regardless of the author – I’d see Shelley’s name listed as the editor.  How exciting it was to learn that Shelley had penned a novel…

  • GCLS Author Guest Blog: LAURIE SALZLER

    I had the opportunity to briefly meet Laurie Salzler at the Conference in Orlando that she speaks of below.  And I got to witness the panel she describes as well.  It was a LOT of fun.  Since then, Laurie has been a Facebook Friend and I’ve followed her posts pretty religiously.   Did you know…

  • GCLS Author Guest Blog: CATHERINE LUNDOFF

    Sheesh!  Another author that I haven’t had the opportunity to meet!  Well, there are a lot of them.  So I guess I can’t be expected to know EVERY author in GCLS.  Catherine and I have passed each other at conferences.  But, quite unfortunately, I’ve not yet had the opportunity to attend a panel or reading…

  • GCLS Author Guest Blog: D. JACKSON LEIGH

    D. Jackson Leigh is another of those authors that I’ve never met in person.  Honestly, I don’t think she and I have even been at the same event at the same time.  My only contact is through Yahoo groups and Facebook.  You know what?  Short of actually meeting her, that’s still pretty cool.  I’ve learned…

  • GCLS Author Guest Blog: POL ROBINSON

    I first met Pol Robinson at a conference in Orlando.  It was a brief, fleeting moment as she was frantically moving through a large group of women who were gathered for Elaine Mulligan’s surprise birthday party.  Pol tapped me – and my mother, if needed – to offer a toast to Lainie.  But it was…

  • GCLS Author Guest Blog: BEV PRESCOTT

    There are many things that can be said about Bev Prescott.  Yes, many things…by many people.  Here is what I have to say about this woman:  Bev Prescott is on my “Top 5 List of the Nicest People, Like, Ever.”   I’ve had the opportunity to meet Bev at GCLS Conferences – she even signed…

  • GCLS Author Guest Blog: D JORDAN REDHAWK

    D Jordan Redhawk is another author that I didn’t *officially* meet at the Minneapolis conference in 2012.  I did chat with her a bit at the Bella table.  And I’ve been a fan of her Xenaverse fan fiction.   But, beyond that, there were no real formal introductions.  Since that time, we’ve become friends on…

  • GCLS Author Guest Blog: JANET MASON

    I met Janet Mason at a GCLS conference in Orlando.  My mother attended with me.  On the first day, we met Janet.  I very clearly remember how wide-eyed she was – just taking everything in!  The biggest standout memory for me, however, was when Janet met Karin Kallmaker.  What a great meeting of two talented…

  • GCLS Author Guest Blog: KARIN KALLMAKER

    This week’s guest blogger should be well-known to you.  If you don’t know the name “Karin Kallmaker,” you’re either not a lesbian or you live in a very, very remote part of the world.  (In which case, you wouldn’t be reading this blog, right?)  I got to meet Karin in 2009 at my first GCLS…

  • GCLS Author Guest Blog: ERICA LAWSON

    I haven’t yet had the pleasure of “officially” meeting Erica Lawson.  We’ve both attended Conferences at the same time.  I’ve been in the audience when she participated in an Author’s Reading (which was fantastic, by the way).  I was in the audience when she won a Goldie for Possessing Morgan.  I’ve read her Xena fan…
