Hello Listmembers, anyone interested in issues that pertain to disabled lesbian/gay/bisexual/transgendered people will want to know about two forthcoming 'special' issues in this field of inquiry. The theme of the Summer 1998 issue of the Disability Studies Quarterly is Disabilility Studies Queered. Guest-edited by me, the issue includes an introduction by me, papers by Beth Ferri, Alexa Scriempf, and others, as well as reviews by Marty Norden, Kate Kaul, and Laurie Posner (among others). This issue of DSQ is scheduled to be mailed out by the end of January. Also, the January 1999 (vol. 4, no. 1) issue of the Journal of Gay, Lesbian, and Bisexual Identity is devoted to Disability and Queerness. Guest-edited by Cathy Marston and Dawn Atkins, the issue includes essays, poetry, reviews, and an interview that Cathy and Dawn conducted with me in which I respond to questions about the disabled dyke anthology I edited and community organizing of disabled queers in Toronto. I hope that many of you will have the opportunity to read both of these collections. Best wishes for the New Year, Shelley Tremain
