The week in review:

• I got a Starred Review from Library Journal, which is a BIG DEAL! Definitely will help with sales.
  
  
• And speaking of sales, the next day after I got that review, I got an interview appearing in Salon. I was thrilled to get the interview but definitely steeled myself for what I always know will happen with mainstream press. That ( Read more... )

The week in review:

• I kinda wasted my weekend with marathon phone chats, partially because I was feeling kind of ill. I spent Saturday chatting with Sarah and Sunday chatting with Kari.
• I'd mentioned that I submitted an article about femininity and asexuality to The Toast. Well, I heard back. The editor said she liked it (with three exclamation ( Read more... )

The week in review:

• Saturday was my first author panel. I read an excerpt of my book Bad Fairy along with authors Ryan Meany and Ron Riekki, and afterwards we went out to eat and talked about writing and life and, you know, pretentious bullcrap. I blogged about it here and there's a video here where you can watch us read our work and answer ( Read more... )

If you guys didn't know, I'm on Tumblr and I rant about asexuality a lot there because it is kind of my only "theme" blog (though I post silly pictures and unrelated content sometimes too).

Sexologist Nikki Goldstein did a segment on asexuality on Australia's The Morning Show last year. I think she ended up confusing the crap out of everyone because she tried to go beyond 101 and the show hosts couldn't stop giggling and being weird, but it was still decent exposure, and for some reason she recommended my materials to the audience at ( Read more... )

I thought some of you guys might be interested to see the results of the Asexual Census (I posted a link back when it was going on). I should reiterate that I didn't design this or help administer it, though I was one of the respondents. (They had thousands of respondents! This data is cool, despite the fact that of course it was a survey that ( Read more... )

Funny how writing awareness articles about asexuality can cause people to mock me using the exact same bullshit I debunked in the article they're mocking.

Found my Good Vibrations article about "How to Be an Asexual Ally" floating around starting here on Tumblr, with nearly 200 reblogs and comments and likes, but not every comment is ( Read more... )
