Title: My non-fiction makes "Best of" Issue
Post by: GinaDouglas on May 16, 2012, 02:44:41 PM
Write From Wrong is an electronic literary journal sponsored by Loyola University of Maryland, a Jesuit University.  My transgender-themed Creative Non-Fiction story "Standards of Care" was published in their November issue.  Today, they informed me that my story was selected for their annual "Best of Write From Wrong" issue.

"Simply put, I love Gina Douglas's piece." – Gregory Howard, Creative Nonfiction Editor

"Douglas has crystal clear prose. Her essay is both enlightening and thought provoking. " - Hayley Battaglia, Fiction Editor

"Regarding the self-discovery of Gina Douglas, a reader cannot turn away from any of these works." – Keith Gaboury, Book Review Editor

Good piece! It's interesting to read the experiences of anyone from that era of time because it was so much different than today. Even though, as far as I can tell, some of the same struggles remain, it's still a lot easier to do now than 30+ years ago.
