Start a Revolution: QUILTBAG Transmutations

–

As noted here, Start a Revolution is now a retired project. I’m leaving this page up for the time being while I decide whether to take it down permanently or not. Debating keeping this as a record of where the project stood before shutting it down.

Following the changes noted in this update, I will be publishing Start a Revolution: QUILTBAG Transmutations myself, through the aid of a forthcoming IndieGoGo campaign (running from May 15th – June 15th). Much of the information on the anthology is currently in progress, and will be updated as I have more to share. (Some of it’s also contingent on the success of the crowdfunding.) For now, here’s the information about the anthology that is confirmed (or confirmed enough that I’m comfortable sharing it):

Release date: November 2015

Cover: Forthcoming

From green revolutions to anarchist uprisings. From social compacts to social justice movements. Stories that push boundaries and identities. That invoke a rebellious voice. That cry out for tolerance, community, and change.

QUILTBAG stories are about diversity in identity. Sometimes that means focusing on finding oneself. But the movement is so much wider. Identity is communal. Identity is global. And this anthology looks to tell those larger stories. Stories about revolution, rebellion, and reshaping the world, all told from QUILTBAG perspectives.
