Storm Moon Press, USA, LGBT
Category: Bookstore/Press/Publisher
Founder/Editor: Undisclosed
E-mail Address: webmaster@stormmoonpress.com

Description:
Storm Moon Press is an independent, small press that specializes in romance and erotica focusing on GLBT and alternative lifestyles, including but not limited to, ménage à trois, polyamory, and BDSM in all genres. We offer most of our titles in both e-book and print format. We are a small press, defined as a Limited Liability Company, dedicated to a specific niché market. There is no intention on our part to become a medium or large press in the future. Our goal is to publish no more than six novels and two anthologies per year. Any more than that and we believe we will compromise our original intent for this press, which was to offer erotic GLBT and alternative lifestyle romances in print formats while offering our authors the best royalties we could. We publish in both print and e-book formats. Our print books are digital Print On Demand books, but we contract directly with the printer, and this keeps our costs down and our print books competitive with other novels within our market. We also have full print distribution through Ingram Book Company, Baker & Taylor, Barnes & Noble.com, and Amazon.com as well as various UK outlets. Our titles can be ordered through any major brick and mortar retailer. Initially, our e-books will only be available through Storm Moon Press' store. We do plan to distribute through third-party e-book sites in the future.

Young Offenders Media, USA, LGBT

Young Offenders Media, USA, LGBT
Category: Bookstore/Press/Publisher
Founder/Editor: Pat Nelson Childs
E-mail Address: info@youngoffendersmedia.com

Description:
Young Offenders Media is a multimedia company with a focus on GLBT (gay, lesbian, bisexual, transsexual) as well as all other types of alternative fiction, poetry and graphic novels from both established and brand new authors. Our objective is to give authors all the tools they need for their books to be successful without taking away all of their control. While we ask them to work hard on their own behalf, we will also support them with a wide array of promotional materials, cooperative advertising and publicity events, plus the chance to collaborate with musicians, videographers, artists and other writers to cross-promote and get in touch with a much wider audience, not only in the U.S., but around the world. We print and distribute to order to save money and trees, and the savings goes straight back to our authors in the form of higher royalties and better promotional opportunities. While publishing is our main emphasis, we also promote, produce and market on behalf of visual artists, musicians and (soon we hope) independent video and filmmakers both alone and in cooperation with other media companies.

Gay's The Word is the UK's pioneering first (and is today the last surviving) lesbian and gay bookshop. Established in 1979 and located in the historic Bloomsbury district of London, we stock an enormous range of books; from the profound to the frivolous, from the liberating to the indulgent. Our fiction ranges from prize-winning literary works through to crime, romance and erotic fiction. Our non-fiction covers a wide range of issues from cutting-edge queer theory through to how to tell your mother you are gay. Our range of queer philosophical, political, historical and other scholarly works is unequalled in the UK. When we recommend a title, it's because we've read it and particularly enjoyed it. We are proudly independent and very much see ourselves as the friendly and non-judgemental safe-space of the gay scene. We are a straight-friendly gay-family business! We have books on gay subject-matter across all genres and also host free book readings and signings.

Founder/Editor: Undisclosed
E-mail Address: books@queerink.com

Description:
There are certain words that, over time, acquire power through hate. There is a history to such things, and then, the long-drawn process of healing. We, at Queer-Ink seek to disempower those who look at others with derision or suspicion or ignorance. We do it not by shutting ourselves out but by embracing the world and all its treasures. We do it through the retailing of books, or the publishing of new works, or even setting up our special Qi Community. After all, this isn’t about being a tribe of its own - a law unto itself, or the kind of flotsam that gets washed on to the shores of a new self-styled ghetto each day. This is about being a part of the WHOLE, but an effusive, assertive, valid part. This is about embracing that whimsical quality that makes each one of us distinctive individuals, irrespective of gender identity or sexual persuasion, irrespective of where we’re placed in the social hierarchy to which we inextricably belong. If you feel you have a whiff of the ‘queer’ about you, and that it adds a special kind of bounce to your stride, do not hesitate to contact us immediately. Queer-Ink is all about the urgency of inter-personal connections. We reach out, so that everyone else can. Queer-Ink has been initiated under the aegis of Offside Enterprises, a partnership of two queer women with over 20 years of experience each in corporate and non-profit sectors, and a shared commitment towards creating empowering and self-sustaining undertakings.
