Welcome to HOOSIER LGBTQ!
August 11, 2012
In the lastest issue of Lesbian Connection, there is a bit from me promoting this blog, which I created as a way to connect with the Hoosier gay community. Please feel free to browse the archives and visit the Facebook page! (link to the right)
Right now I have been extremely busy with my wife and son, as well as on my forthcoming YA novels through Queerteen Press. But I do hope to get this newsletter back on track when possible! I am always looking for people to submit activities and events in Indiana, and would like to offer free advertisting for gay-run/gay-friendly Indiana businesses. (To submit, please e-mail kimnflowers@yahoo.com).
The Indy Pride Facebook Page is a great place to find local events, but here are a few things I've gathered from there and other places across the web:
