Bywater Books is pleased to announce that Virginia Black has been selected to participate in Lambda Literary’s 2024 Writers Retreat for Emerging LGBTQ Voices.
For over 35 years, Lambda Literary has championed LGBTQIA+ books and authors based on its belief that lives are affirmed and culture preserved when our stories are written, published, and read. Since 2007, Lambda Literary has offered the Writers Retreat for Emerging LGBTQ Voices—the nation’s premier LGBTQIA+ writing residency, which brings together emerging poets, playwrights, screenwriters, essayists, novelists, and memoirists in a safe, welcoming, and love-centered community.
As a 2024 Fellow, Virginia will study speculative fiction under Charlie Jane Anders, who has won the Hugo, Nebula, Sturgeon, Lambda Literary, Crawford and Locus awards
