Congratulations to the bisexual winners of the 27th Annual Lambda Literary Awards!

BISEXUAL NONFICTION - Fire Shut Up In My Bones, Charles M. Blow, Houghton Mifflin Harcourt
The Betty Berzon Emerging Writer Award - Daisy Hernandez.
A full list of the winners can be found here.
I have puzzled over the past day the odd circumstance of my folk tale collection, Extraordinary Adventures of Mullah Nasruddin, being switched by the Lambda Literary Award folks from the category I submitted it in, Bisexual Nonfiction, to another category, Bisexual Fiction, without my knowledge prior to the announcement yesterday that the book was named a Finalist in Bi Fiction.

We'll talk Lammy predictions on Friday, but notice the overlap here with our genre-fied Stonewall list from last week--of the 8 books on that list, 6 were also recognized by the Lambda committee. Hmmm...
