This week at SFF7 we’re having a week to address what’s been on
our minds.
The topic of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) in
Romancelandia has been prominent for me.
I wanted to do a signal boost for some terrific sites where
a reader can find all genres of romances written by Authors of Color (AoC), as
well as LGBTQIA Authors.
Some of these are sites I’ve been visiting regularly and
others were mentioned in the past week on Facebook, Twitter and yes, the RWA
PAN email Loop. Melanie Greene has been especially active in sharing good
resources there (and elsewhere I'm sure).
My personal primary go-to has been the excellent WOC In
Romance site at http://www.wocinromance.com You
can Follow them on twitter at @WOCInRomance
Other resources mentioned often this week:
www.cimrwa.org/our-authors.html Cultural, Interracial, Multicultural
Special Interest Chapter of Romance Writers of America Twitter: @CIMRWA
And I very much rely on Queer SciFi https://queerscifi.com/ for recommendations, including Following them
on twitter at @QueerSciFi
PLEASE do mention in the comments below any
other sites or lists or twitter feeds I may have missed!!! This list is a place to start but I'd love to add more...
