Jane Campbell: How I Wrote ‘Campfire’ “My hope for this poem is that it reminds dykes of our unity when so much of the world tries to undermine us. Campfires give us a way of celebrating the rare joy of being in a majority.”
Forester McClatchey: How I Wrote ‘Elephant in Hannibal’s Army’ “Perhaps the best one can hope to do when writing in the voice of an animal is urgently point to one’s own ignorance.” Content warning: animal cruelty, war
Betty Doyle: How I Wrote ‘Announcements’ “It raced through my mind, unlocking all the bars, yelling ‘no compromise – you must and can and will write’” Content warning: pregnancy loss, childlessness
