Lambda Literary Award!

[desayunoencama]

Given the time difference between Madrid and Los Angeles, I didn't get the email from our publishers that FIRST PERSON QUEER won the Lambda Literary award in the Best Anthology Category until this morning.

Yay!

I haven't found a link to the full list of winners online yet, but I'll post one when I do.

Congrats and thanks again to all the contributors, who made this such a wonderful collection.

And to Brian Lam and Robert Ballantyne for believing in Richard and me.
