The main (and free) part of the event, featuring readings, panels and browsing through stalls run by publishers and booksellers, runs Sunday from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. on a strip of Church St., from Wellesley to Alexander, that will be closed to car traffic. Featured participants include Nalo Hopkinson, a Jamaican-born writer known mainly as an author of science fiction and fantasy novels, California transgender writer Patrick Califia and Toronto's Michael Rowe.

I'd say content.
As an androgyne I guess I'm pretty queer - but my writing is largely concerned with hetrosexual romance, and the weird way that dreams, hopes, realities and fantasies all wobble when you see the (girl) that makes you sigh. - Not all that queer at all.

But I'm doing one about money and happiness now, there may be a hinted gay relationship - but that'll only be for texture.
