Links: Drag Queens, Horror, & More

Workspace with computer, journal, books, coffee, and glasses.Welcome back to Wednesday Links!

What’s new with me? I’m sick! Have a sore throat that I’m definitely not loving and doing everything I can to soothe it. We also have a long weekend here in the States for the 4th of July. Boston definitely goes all out, but I will be staying inside, cranking my AC, and probably playing Power Wash Simulator (there’s a new Spongebob Squarepants DLC dropping tomorrow!)

How are you all doing?

Cashmere Magazine has an essay on Black women writing erotica, which feels particularly apt given the pearl-clutching over Katrina Jackson’s sexy, special edition illustrated cover (art done by Lucy Eden!).

This link was sent in by Linda!

You might already know this amazing tidbit, but I figured it would not hurt to let you know the Big Gay Fiction Podcast did a great interview with KD Casey who publishes romances with Jewish characters (episode 418) and makes a point that at minimum one of her heroes is Jewish. Additionally, there is a website (I have not looked into it throughly) mentioned by KD Casey called “Bookishly Jewish: Jewish Authors Reviewing Jewish Books.”

It’s still Pride Month! (Did any of you get up to Pride activities?) And given that it’s still Pride, it’s a great time to talk about queer horror, though let’s be honest, I’ll talk about queer horror any time, day, or place.

Dungeons and Drag Queens is a new campaign starting tonight by my favorite D&D content creators, Dimension 20! The trailer is below. I will say that watching on Dropout does require a subscription, but the $6 a month is so worth it, even if you just consume the D&D content.

I also found a Trixie & Katya D&D Character Creator!

Don’t forget to share what cool or interesting things you’ve seen, read, or listened to this week! And if you have anything you think we’d like to post on a future Wednesday Links, send it my way!

    My latest library loan just arrived today: IT CAME FROM THE CLOSET by JOe Vallese, subtitled Queer Reflections on Horror.

    From the blurb: “Carmen Maria Machado on Jennifer’s Body, Jude Ellison S. Doyle on In My Skin, Addie Tsai on Dead Ringers, and many more, these conversations convey the rich reciprocity between queerness and horror.”

    Can confirm Dungeons and Drag Queens is exactly as fun as you think it is! Highly recommend!
