Internet Radio Interview - The Rainbow Writers on October 8th, 2009, at 10 PM EST
Dear readers,
Femslash For Fans at http://www.blogtalkradio.com/allaine is a call-in Internet radio show I've been hosting for the past five months, devoted to Internet femslash fan communities and the authors who write there. The goal is to give femslash fanfic authors the chance to be interviewed over the medium of live audio, and readers the chance to hear what their favorites have to say.
Having finished a very entertaining series of discussions in recent weeks of popular femslash pairings in TV crime drama like "Women's Murder Club", "NCIS", and "CSI: Miami", we move back to one of the very first great femslash fandoms to hit the Internet, LIVE, airing Thursday, October 8th, at 10:00 PM EST:

Back to the Beginning - The Rainbow Writers, Willow/Tara, and What "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" Did For Femslash Today
We'll be taking a trip back in time to one of the first, greatest canon lesbian pairings on network television - Willow/Tara from the WB's "Buffy the Vampire Slayer". It was all the way back during the 1999-2000 season when we first were charmed by Tara Maclay in "Hush", when we first fell in love along with Willow Rosenberg in "New Moon Rising". A year later we cheered when they shared their first onscreen kiss in "The Body". And a year after that the righteous fury poured forth when Tara was - well, you know. We'll be talking about those days with two of the most prolific Willow/Tara authors out there, the collaborative team known as the Rainbow Writers. We'll discuss their sizable body of work, including "The Circle Series", "Safe in her Arms", and what the future holds for their readers.
You can listen to the show live through your computer speakers by following the link provided above, or you can download an .mp3 recording of the show after it airs and listen on your iPod or other mp3 player. There will be an online chatroom running concurrent with the show, and you can download all prior episodes at the site homepage (the link in my signature). And you can join the Yahoo Group http://groups.yahoo.com/group/femslash4fansradio to receive updates.
Listeners are encouraged to call in during the show at 347-637-1231 and ask questions of their own :)
Hope you'll tune in!
Sincerely, Allaine
