Hey guys. Trying my hand at the new blogging thing. I don't have many news items to post, seeing as Kevin just did that a few hours ago, so I'll start things off with some books and some movies that everyone should look into.
Annie on My Mind, by Nancy Gardner
| This is one of the classics of lesbian literature. Published in 1982, Annie on My Mind is a really sweet story about... well, about two girls in love. (As you get to know my taste in books, this will come as less and less of a surprise.) I'm not going to call it a masterpiece of literature, but it's well-done, if a little cliche. It's a happy, happy book (not a huge downer like Keeping You a Secret--to be discussed later) that leaves you feeling warm and fuzzy inside and wishing there were more of it. The characters and the relationships are really excellently described. You should read this. |  |
More gay music! St. Peter's Bones, by Girlyman
So, this is the first (and not the last) time you'll hear me mentioning Girlyman. Girlyman is an awesome awesome group, perhaps one of the queerest groups in existance. They're made up of Doris, Ty, and Nate, each of whom plays like three instruments each, and they sing in gorgeous lush multipart harmony. Also, Nate is so adorably gay, Doris is gorgeous with a freaking wonderful voice, and Ty is sex on legs. I saw them live the other day, and while they were tuning Nate made up (on the spot, mind you) a song about shooting a wolf from a helicopter. And Doris grabbed her tamborine and she and Ty started singing backup. Long story short, Girlyman is wonderful.
Also, remember, if you have any questions you would like answered, we have the previous posts comments open for anonymous questions (which will not be published until answered!)
Feel free to comment on this post as well!
That's all for tonight. Sleep is a good thing, you all should try it some time. Cheers!
