This site is particularly for readers—or potential readers—of my dozens of published fictional works. Frankly, I'm hoping that if you're thinking about trying out some of my books, you might browse around here and read some of the sample chapters (I've tried to use some fairly sizeable chunks from some books as samples on here), or some of the other content, and decide to run over to your local LGBT bookstore, or Bella Books online, or some other place online, and buy some of my books. Or all of my books.
So this site is for those of you who want to check out me and my writings. It's also for folks who want more—to read more, to find more, and to find out more, like how I know so much about some of the topics I've written about, what all have I written about or just what do I do for a day job and how would you go about employing me for a single assignment or as a full-time employee.
Please note: If you're looking for Therese Szymanski's LiveJournal, that can be found here: http://reeseszymanski.livejournal.com/.
I plan to put new content up on the site each month, so there's lots of reasons to keep on checking back. Since I've been writing for quite a while (my first book came out back when AOL was on its way out—and I'd already had four plays produced by that time), I've got quite a lot of interesting stories, plays and other items that you might be interested in reading—and if you don't like one thing, you might want to check out something else, since I don't write in just one area.
If you'd like, go on over to the "Contact Reese" part of the site and drop me a line to let me know you'd like to know when I put updates up. I'd be more than happy to let you know whenever there are new goodies to be found here.
Oh, and if you're wondering just what sort of new material I'll be putting up, I can't tell you everything, but I do plan on putting up the scripts for all of my plays, as well as some of my old humour columns, and perhaps some materials from some classes I've taught. I just hope that whatever it is, you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed creating it.
One last thing: If you can't read a page, like maybe you think I went nuts and decided to put grey type on a purple background? It's not me, it's broke and I'd really love it if you'd just send me the link to the page so I can fix it! Thanks in advance!
And you can buy my books from your local independent/feminist/LGBT or lesbian bookstore, or any really cool store that might sell books like mine.
Oh, and of course, you can buy it/find out about its availability and such from my terrific publisher, Bella Books.
My books are also available on a veritable plethora of online booksellers, including
all the Amazons in the world:
U.S. Canada United Kingdom Germany
And a whole lot of other places, like
and
to name but two.
