G. Roger Denson’s novel Voice of Force was named the 2009 best gay novel by The Modern Classic Reader Society, which also named the twenty best gay novels ever written. The society, which will soon name other categories of best novels, is making a point of considering self-published novels not only because it believes it is the direction in which the publishing industry is headed, but because so many of history's ground-breaking novels have been initially self published. Here is the story... Read Full Story
On Amazon.com I found an exciting new novel. G. Roger Denson's VOICE OF FORCE. In essence it asks the simple questions: Has increased awareness of sexuality and difference truly helped us live more harmonious lives?

Increasing tolerance may have softened the fault lines of social prejudice, but Denson suggests that when a public tragedy draws out the voices of... Read Full Story
The Gay Lesbian Straight Education Network held its annual prom over the weekend at the Contemporary Arts Center. Adults, those 21+, took the top floor with a live band, delicious food and cash bar. The kids were relegated to the downstairs where it looked like a typical prom, with a DJ and mocktails served by volunteers. The decorations were beautiful and it seemed that everyone had a great time. The best thing about GLSEN Prom is that it allows queers of all ages to wear whatever they want... Read Full Story
We want to thank professional anti-gay activist Peter LaBarbera for bringing to our attention a speech that GLSEN founder (and Department of Education appointee) Kevin Jennings made back during the Clinton years. For while Pete surely intends for the Jennings' speech to serve as a glaring example of the HOMOSEXUAL AGENDA™ at play, what we think you will glean in Kevin's words is the heartfelt wish of a reasoned and reasonable man who is driven to nip in the bud the very idea that reality...

Isaiah Washington met with GLSEN and agreed to help publicize the message of gay and lesbian rights. Washington has been under serious pressure to apologize to his Grey's Anatomy co-star for a gay lifestyle slur.
“He seemed very sincere in his interest in working with us in an ongoing basis,” said Kevin Jennings, executive director of the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network. “We emphasized that this is not a one-shot deal, but an ongoing thing. He was very open to doing this.” Read Full Story
On this July 4th, I've decided to post the folowing text of a letter to the editor I recently wrote and had published in an LA newspaper regarding gay/lesbian marriage rights. I couldn't think of a more appropriate, timely topic for this blog today, nor could I find a better way to write it than I already had. Regardless of your thoughts on this issue, I hope you'll be able to keep an open mind. And a happy Fourth of July to all of my fellow Americans. The letter is thus: I’ve been following...
