Last night, I posted about a chapter of the RWA running a writing competition and changing their policy of years to ban same-sex romances. Plenty of us said, well, get new judges then.
Wouldn't work.
As seen on this blog here, when Larissa wrote to the chapter to offer a group of people willing to judge all and any books, the group told her
“Thank you, Larissa, but it was never a lack of judges that made our determination. It was that the majority of our members were uncomfortable with being a contest that takes same-sex entries.”
A petition to the Romance Writers of America is here.

I'm still appalled by the idea that they no longer consider LGBT romance to be appropriate. Guess they didn't get the memo that love is love.
