I am so pleased to announce the finalized line-up for Heiresses of Russ 2016, from Lethe Press, edited by Steve Berman and myself. This is my editorial debut and it’s the sixth, I believe in the HoR series. As the Lethe Press site says, Heiresses of Russ reprints the prior year’s best lesbian-themed short works of the fantastical, the otherworldly, the strange and wondrous under one cover.

Here’s the line-up:

• Grandmother ley-neylit’s Cloth of Winds by Rose Lemberg
• The Occidental Bride by Benjanun Sriduangkaew
• The Devil Comes to the Midnight Café by A.C. Wise
• And We Were Left Darkling by Sarah Pinsker
• A House of Her Own by Bo Balder
• Love in the Time of Markov Processes by Megan Arkenberg
• Where Monsters Dance by Merc Rustad
• Hungry Daughters of Starving Mothers by Alyssa Wong
• Fabulous Beasts by Priya Sharma
• The Wollart Nymphs by Melissa Scott
• The New Mother by Eugene Fischer
• Eldritch Brown Houses by Claire Humphrey
• The Tip of the Tongue by Felicia Davin
• Where Can a Broken Glass Mend? by Sonya Taaffe
• A Residence for Friendless Ladies by Alice Sola Kim
• The Deepwater Bride by Tamsyn Muir
• Doubt the Sun by Faith Mudge

As a side-dish to go with the introduction I wrote for this anthology, in which I speculate about what Joanna Russ might have thought of this series that bears her name, I am hoping to lure some of my wonderful authors over here to talk about what constitutes a lesbian-themed work of genre fiction in this day and age.
