1. How did you get roped into writing for TBP?
Mattilda! She called me last summer (I think?) and told me about the project, and why she was going to participate, and asked whether I'd be interested in participating, too. I was concerned about taking on something new when my schedule was already packed, but intrigued by the idea of so many voices on one blog and liked that part of what that meant was I wouldn't feel the pressure of posting all the time myself -- that, among other things, the multivoice aspect of the project created a space for some of us who don't have time to post a lot to still participate in blogging.

2. What was your coming out experience like?
Ongoing. As a queer-identified person in a relationship that most people want to read as straight, I feel like queer visibility is something I'm always actively engaged in. Among many other things I value about not doing marriage (although I could marry my partner in any state), every time someone asks whether (or when, if they're really presumptuous and annoying!) I'm gonna get married, it's an opportunity to talk about queer identity and politics, and, however frustrating I find those questions, I love jumping on that opportunity!

3. If you were a WWE wrestler, what would your theme song be?
Um, I haven't watched that kinda thing since my days of watching GLOW with my sister in the early '80s (sad but true, I loved the farmer's daughter--it must've been the frayed denim...), so I'm probably gonna fail at the cultural nuances here ... yeah, I don't think I'm pop-culture-hip enough to even try and answer this.

4. What book should every Projector read?
Color of Violence: The INCITE! Anthology

5. Be honest . . . favorite Spice Girl?
Who??

6. Favorite late night snack?
Water
