The Publishing Triangle Literary Awards Fund
Speaking of the Triangle awards, we are on the way toward our goal of
raising $25,000 to fund our annual literary
awards in nonfiction and poetry. Since the fund-raising drive was
announced at the May 2004 awards ceremony, more than fifty donors have
responded with generous gifts totaling more than $17,000.
For information on how you can make a fully tax-deductible
contribution and a list of generous friends who helped endow this fund,

Our LGBT Reading List
Do you love LGBT literature and want to know what to read next? Well,
then you've landed on the right web page. The Publishing Triangle asked
two distinguished panels of judges to come up with The 100 Best Lesbian and Gay Novels and The 100 Best Lesbian and Gay Nonfiction
Books of all time.
We also asked fourteen lesbian book reviewers, booksellers,
librarians, and/or authors to name the Most Notable Lesbian Books of 2004.
Also be sure to check out new
publications by Publishing Triangle members and books that won 2004 Publishing Triangle
Awards.
