Hi all! This is Damon Smith (dsmith@queertexts.com). We are a bunch of university gay and lesbian friends who decided to create an online directory of LGBT literature and a way to help writers publish their work, distribute it online, and make money on each copy they sell to visitors from all over the world! My own personal experience with this was as a subscriber of the former Out&About gay travel newsletter (before they were acquired by gigantic and moronic gay.com and flushed down the drain). They would partner with great gay travel journalists, turn their pieces into PDFs, and sell the files online for digital distribution to members from all over the world.

Queertexts.com is currently being beta tested, and we would like to invite all writers and bloggers to submit their works for online publishing. We have received a number of very interesting submissions from bloggers who compiled a series of postings and articles into digital books and guides, ranging from subjects such as travel (specific destinations or topics, such as "Bear Travel"), Fiction, Comic Books, Essays, Politics, Finances, and, of course, Sex.

Queertexts reviews each submission and, upon acceptance, helps you turn it into a PDF. We publish, promote, sell and distribute your files online, and pay you each monthly for your titles' sales via PayPal. You can log in at any time and check your balance, add titles, edit your descriptions, and more.

We are very excited about this friends' project turned into a real business opportunity for gay and lesbian writers from all over the world! So please come visit the site, send us feedback, and consider submitting your work and partnering with us. If you have questions/comments/ideas, please do not hesitate to contact me! (dsmith@queertexts.com). Cheers! Damon
