| QUOTATION: | I sometimes have the sense that I live my life as a writer with my nose pressed against the wide, shiny plate glass window of the “mainstream” culture. The world seems full of straight, large-circulation, slick periodicals which wouldn’t think of reviewing my book and bookstores which will never order it. |
| ATTRIBUTION: | Jan Clausen (b. 1943), U.S. author, editor, and lesbian feminist. A Movement of Poets (1982).
Clausen published her fiction and poetry through “small” or “alternative” presses and magazines. |
