I would like to do another piece of fiction dealing with a number of issues: Lesbian parenting the 1960's and interracial relationships in the Lesbian and Gay community.
Gay marriage won't be more of an issue 25 years from now than interracial marriage is today.
I think it's something that needs to be said - that there are interracial marriages out there and the couples live happy lives and there's nothing wrong with it.
The real estate agent had to go door-to-door in the apartment building we wanted to rent asking if it was OK for this interracial family - my mom is white and I was a 1-year-old half-African kid - to live in the apartment building.
As a kid I grew to define what I didn't want my life to be like by sitting behind moaning women on the bus hearing them bang on about their aches and pains both real and imagined.
