Update de la novela corta: inició como un trabajo de ciencia ficción, pero entre más avanzo más me está llevando el lenguaje de regreso a la fantasía. Creo que sufrí un poco de (como escribía Le Guin) autocensura; comencé a creer que ese tema no era apropiado abordarlo desde la fantasía.

What I see in a lot of mainstream sff short fiction is the lack of curiosity disguised in the language of revolutionary politics. Uninterested in its own subject matter, it tells you exactly what to think and allows you to feel nothing other than undeserved self-satisfaction.

There is a kind of rage that only fantasy can express, for there is an embodiment in fantasy fiction that is unique to the genre.

Just remember: traditional publishing at all levels is allergic to queer storytelling. They do not understand. And, if they do, they are very likely to say no because they are afraid of backlash. I've had that experience. You've had thay experience. Let's recognize it and move on.
