But for these two local women, unexpected results like these are iust part of the usual territory for writers of science fiction, fantasy, and horror. Arnason, a feminist science fiction writer with a strong interest in gender bending, has written five novels. I couldn't bear to eat it. Ring of Swords is a strong portrayal of an alien society.

Sex serves a lot of purposes, more than simply making sure there is a next generation.
Also, I wanted to write a romance. Plus, I wanted to write about men having strong feelings. Across the table from Amason is Pam Keesey, whose flock of lesbian vampires is definitely full of strong feelings. Keesey, the editor of two anthologies from Cleis Press, Daughters of Darkness and Dark Angels, just has got back from a book tour. Her enthusiasm for vampires has raised some eyebrows, she explains.
