Just days after the ceremony handing out the annual Lambda Awards for gay and lesbian fiction, a Queertype report by Jameson Currier says “Things seem to be rapidly changing at the Lambda Literary Foundation,” the organization that sponsors the awards. Currier says the staff of the Foundation’s publication, the Lambda Book Report, has been dismissed, and that another of the organization’s publications, the James White Review, and a writers conference sponsored by LLF, “may be suspended.” Capping it all off has been the apparent resignation of the Foundation’s executive director, Jim Marks. Currier says his attempt to “clarify what had transpired” regarding Marks’ departure resulted in an e-mail from the Foundation reiterating that Marks had resigned. it said the LLF’s Board of Trustees “are evaluating the impact of this resignation and factoring it into other structural plans discussed at the June 3, 2005 Board meeting. It is expected that other announcements will be forthcoming.”
