Lambda Literary, America’s oldest and largest literary arts organization advancing LGBTQ literature, announced the finalists of the 30th Annual Lambda Literary Awards today. The “Lammys,” as they are affectionately known, celebrate achievement in LGBTQ writing.
Congratulations to all the authors and publishers nominated for the 30th Annual Lambda Literary Awards. We were so excited to see a number of Canadian-authored books and three BC books too.
