Abigail Garner, author of the must-read Families Like Mine: Children of Gay Parents Tell It Like It Is, publisher of Web sites Damn Straight and Oversampled, and all-around advocate for LGBT families, has announced she will leave her career as “professional queerspawn” as of the end of the year.
Abigail has done a tremendous amount for LGBT families through her book, her public speaking, and her attempts to “[build] a queerspawn movement that does not rely to heavily on one voice, or even a small handful of voices.” Her book and her Web sites are full of information and resources for children of LGBT parents and parents themselves. They will continue as a testament to her work even as she moves on to another phase of her life.
You can read more about her decision and future plans in the FAQs on her Web site.
Best of luck, Abigail! I wish you well in your future endeavors.
