Now in its third volume, Gay City Anthologies turns for inspiration to the "pulp" era of the 20th century. The early gay pulp novels were chewy, campy and often controversial, yet they signaled generations of gay and bi men that others like themselves existed; men who were dreaming of skimpy swimming suits, motorcycle jackets, cowboy hats and a world better than that they'd inherited. In Re-Pulped!, we include selections from nearly forgotten queer pioneers as well as works from today's most exciting new voices in fiction, photography, comic art and poetry. From romantic and wry to adventurous and edgy, this collection bursts through the boundaries of genre to redefine not only what gay was, but what it might yet be.

The Victorians told them at Christmas, Balzac, Poe, deMaupassant and Kipling felt they were fundamental to the writer's craft yet, as Pulitzer-prize winner Michael Chabon writes, "the ghost story has been consigned to the ghetto of sub-genre." Join in this literary séance with phantasmagorical masters of the art like James (both of them), Lovecraft and Edith Wharton. Then work through the included exercises to produce your own terrifying tale.

Ranging from disastrous paternity tests on trash TV to a backyard barbecue that doesn't quite go the way anyone expects, these ten-minute plays are bite-sized explorations of the human condition. The pieces include roles for 2-10 actors of both genders and are written in a variety of theatrical styles including Grand-Guignol, early-century Soviet, modern commedia del-arte and surrealist. Best of all, they're free to perform.
