The UK’s LGBT fiction prize, the Green Carnation, announced the 2011 long list today. I’m not familiar with any of the books, which probably means that none of them are SpecFic, and none of them are trans-related. But you never know. If I am wrong I’m sure that Simon or Gav will turn up here and correct me. In any case I’m delighted to see so many nominees from big name publishers.

Update: Nicola Griffith has very good things to say about the long list here.
