Romance Writers of America "uncomfortable" with LGBT romance

So uncomfortable in fact that one of their chapters have banned authors of same-sex romances from entering their books into competition altogether.

This kind of discrimination makes me uncomfortable too. I’m sure you’ve heard of this already, but if you haven’t, check out Heidi Cullinan’s post about it:

And in keeping with my apparent new mission in life – spreading links to petitions – here is the link to the petition you can sign to tell the RWA that this is unacceptable.

Please pass the link along to anyone who you think might be interested.
