The tote bag: What began as a bit of a marketing joke apparently garnered
admirers at the Woolf conference (Im told), and so I am making Queer
Bloomsbury the tote bag available to all and sundry at
http://pixels.com/products/queer-bloomsbury-full-cover-brenda-helt-tote-bag-
16-16.html . This can also be accessed via the main menu of my personal
webpage (www.brendahelt.com). Proceeds will go to The Trevor Project, a
national organization providing crisis intervention and suicide prevention
services to LGBTQ young people ages 13-24. Hilariously, at the same site
you can order Queer Bloomsbury the shower curtain or Queer Bloomsbury the
iPhone caseas I said, this began as a joke. The tote bag, however, is
actually pretty cool. So is the book, if I do say so myself.
Very best,
Brenda (and Madelyn)
