From the editor of The Independent Gay Writer...

Here's a great opportunity for writers who have a more non-fiction bent and something to say.

If you've been a regular reader of the IGW in the last year, you know that such "Calls for Submissions" is becoming a regular feature of this newsletter, which is one of our goals—to bring out the independent writer in all of us.
