Blow those jagged, limb-shaped trumpets! Queer Horror: A Film Guide has been nominated for a Rondo Award for Book of the Year!
This is especially cool since we’ve been named alongside such excellent publications as I SPIT ON YOUR CELLULOID: The History of Women Directing Horror Films, by Heidi Honeycutt. This also feels like a congratulatory vindication for Sean Abley and Tyler Doupé , our brilliant editors, who, for almost 10 years, guided this book from various scattered entries into a polished volume celebrating all that is LGBTQIA in fright movies.
Naturally, I’ve attached the link to the ballot here:

You can copy and paste it and send it along in an email to taraco@aol.com, if you’d like to vote. You have the option of marking your picks in all of the categories — or simply limiting it the one or two that you are most aware of and/or most passionate about.
& if brevity is indeed your bag – I have to say that CATEGORY 11 is an incredibly interesting option.
Hint, hint, hint…
Until the next time, SWEET love and pink GRUE, Big Gay Horror Fan!
Fingers crossed!
Thank you, Hamish!
