I’m 34 now & when I sext I say things like “my spelunker bunker can take quite a beating” & this is probably why I’m single.

When the NEA asked us to promise not to publish trans, nonbinary, or gender fluid authors, we told them to kick rocks. (Actually, formally, with a unanimous vote by the Board of Directors, we told them to kick rocks.) So the NEA rescinded our funding.

"Your project
to promote 'gender ideology'
unfortunately does not align with our priorities."
—NEA Notice of Termination

Sarabande is exceedingly proud to be misaligned with this administration's vision for the arts.
We refuse to become demoralized, soft-pedal our values, or sell out our authors for federal funding.
We know you share our values and determination. Help us bridge the gap left by the NEA with a recurring monthly donation or gift of any size.
