ABC-CLIO is seeking academic writers to contribute in a new 2-volume reference on gender and identity around the world. The book includes the male, female, and LGBTQ experiences. In a close examination of approximately 30 countries/geographic areas from a variety of world regions and with a variety of gender experiences, each gender and identity will be explored in terms of culture, education, family life, health and wellness, law, work, and activism.
Each entry will be about 11,000 words long and rough copy due by November 1, 2018. Each writer will earn access to the online copy of the reference along with minimal payment.

June 12, 2016, forty-nine people were killed and another fifty-three people injured at the Pulse gay nightclub in Orlando Florida. This was the worst shooting in U.S. history by a single shooter. It was a antigay hate crime. ABC-CLIO has given me permission to distribute my academic article on this tragedy. These two links below provide both the 16,000 word academic article and a shorter personal impression. You are welcome to download and share with others.
Approximately 50 academic writers are needed to participate in a large publishing project by Prager/ABC-CLIO.
Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender Americans at Risk: Problems and Solutions is intended to be a 3-volume reference on LGBTQI history, politics, law, and culture of the United States. Each contributor will write an authoritative essay of approximately 8,000 words on a wide-range of topics. You will have your choice of topics.
Now is your opportunity to be published by a respected academic press. This project is open to all writers. Please let graduate students know of this opportunity.
