Question of the Week
"What is the future of GenderTalk? You are broadcast on the airwaves locally, streamed on the Internet and podcast. Is syndication of your program possible so you can be heard on public radio stations around the country like CarTalk? Any thoughts of expanding your broadcast to Satellite radio? Is a TV talk show in your future?"
(From: Alana)

  Two novels dealing with trans protagonists recently tied as winners of the Project QueerLit award. Alicia Goranson, from the Boston area, talks with us about her novel Supervillainz, an allegory of a pair of transgender friends chased through a network of genderqueers by the ambitions of a family of superheroes. And Peggy Munson, disabled queer femme writer and author of the novel Origami Striptease, talks about disability and some of the realities of living with CFIDS: Chronic Fatigue and Immune Dysfunction Syndrome.
