Published: March 19, 2021, 5 a.m.

Andi and\xa0Lise\xa0were joined by author KD Williamson to talk about lesbian fiction aka \u201clesfic.\u201d\xa0Why does it seem to be predominantly defined by storylines that feature romance \u2014 F/F \u2014 that usually involve sexual consummation, whether it\u2019s fade to black or depicted as part of the storyline? Why aren\u2019t there other genres represented as much as romance under the\xa0lesfic\xa0umbrella? After all, being LGBTQ+ involves a lot more than romance and sex. Andi,\xa0Lise, and KD ponder.\xa0

Shout-outs:\xa0Lise\xa0is not pleased about this, but getting it done will be great \u2013\xa0fixing up the bathroom! For her part, KD\xa0has been doing some of her gaming. She\u2019s got\xa0Assassin\u2019s Creed: Valhalla\xa0on the Xbox and\xa0Ni no\xa0Kuni\xa0on the Nintendo Switch AND the PS5! Meanwhile, Andi sucked it up and just bought a PS4. The first 3 games she got are\xa0Uncharted: Lost Legacy,\xa0Horizon Zero Dawn,\xa0 and\xa0Wolfenstein\xa0II: New Colossus.\xa0
