Articles and Other Stuff

(A Very Small Portion of) The Collected Works of Liz Doughty

Back in 1997-1998, I used write for a local magazine called Entre Nous. While they enjoyed my stuff, eventually it was dropped from the lineup because my content wasn't gay enough. I've always been a bit bitter about that but refused to change my writing style or willingness to follow the lead of whatever inspiration came my way to fit their needs.

So here are the articles from a few months.

I've also included the article I submitted for publication to an anthology, Touched By Adoption.
