Posted by juliarios in : events, interviews, news, Outer Alliance Podcast , trackbackWelcome to Outer Alliance Spotlight #69. The Spotlight features news about (and sometimes interviews with) allies who are active in supporting and celebrating LGBTQI speculative fiction. This week we’ve got the fifth Outer Alliance Podcast episode for you!
In this episode, Catherine Lundoff, Jean Marie Ward, and Lisa Nohealani Morton talk to me about Hellebore and Rue, an anthology about lesbian magic users. After the interview, Catherine reads a selection of teasers from the book, and Jean Marie reads an excerpt of her contribution.

Notes:
Angela Korra’ti’s post about her plans to raise money for disaster relief in Japan is here.
This year’s Lambda Award Finalists are listed here. Congratulations to everyone, especially OA members, Steve Berman, Katharine Beutner, and Sandra McDonald!
MidSouthCon is happening next weekend in Memphis, Tennessee. I’ll be there along with OA member, Angelia Sparrow. if you’re nearby, come say hi!
The Rainbow Book Fair is also happening next weekend in New York. It’s a big and free LGBT book event, and Craig Laurence Gidney, Nora Olsen and Kat Lively will all be there!
Lisa’s poem in Strange Horizons is “How to Bake a Cake From Scratch”.
Viable Paradise, the writing workshop where Lisa and I first met, is open for applications until the 15th of June.
Catherine’s reading last Friday (we recorded the interview on Sunday the 13th) took place at Dreamhaven Books in Minneapolis. If you’re in the Twin Cities area, and want to support an awesome indie bookstore, that’s a great place to go.
Finally, in addition to all the cons Catherine and Jean Marie listed, Lisa says she’ll be at WorldCon in Reno this August, so if you’re there, say hello!

Bummer. Zombiality didn’t make it to finals. Ah well, honor to be nominated and all that…
BTW, stop by the Literary Underworld booth and say hello at MidSouth. I won’t have any teeth, and I may be higher than a kite (my dental scheduling leaves something to be desired) but I’ll be pleased to see anyone.
