"queer women": Must have publicly self-identified for a significant amount of time as a queer woman. For living people, "queer woman" includes any person who has identified as a woman at the same time that she has openly acknowledged being lesbian, bisexual, queer, or having had primary sexual or romantic relationship(s) with other women. For deceased people, note and describe source: self-identification, historical knowledge of public relationship, etc. Any living writer who wishes to not be listed here will be removed; this list is not intended to out people.
"writers of SF": Must be identified by someone, somewhere, as a writer of SF. This is a judgment involving critical literary faculty and not weighing on personal lives that may implicate social or legal consequences, so feel free to label.
