Why Lesbian Romance?

My philosophy of lesbian romance. I am of the opinion that lesbian romance stories are the only novels where a woman can go to find affirmation of her hopes, her dreams and her choices in life. They reflect and celebrate the evolving nature of our relationships, friendships and community. Lesbian fiction of all kinds creates a mirror for who we are and who we might be in a world where we are received as equals by others.

For many women, even in 2010, the only community they can safely find is in books and stories written by lesbians and for lesbians. Depictions of real lesbian lives -- or lives we hope some lesbians somewhere are leading -- remind us that, even though we may not get it, we have a right to respect and happiness, regardless of what voters might say.
