	SF and Fantasy Alternate Sexuality Listing
	------------------------------------------


**NEW NOTE:  My paper is due Monday.  If anybody knows in what Arthur
C. Clarke book he mentions orbitl satellites, please e-mail me  title,
and, if possible, bibliographic information.  MANY MANY THANKS!**


(All comments and critique welcome. I'd appreciate any comments on the books
listed here, any additional books by these authors, regardless of
sexual content, and anything you may have forgotten or assumed
somebody else would recommend :-).  In addition, I'm also looking for
more non-positive renditions of alternate sexuality in fantasy...feel
free to send me SF too and I'll add it to the list even though I may
not use it for my paper.  I don't have time to read all of these, so
I'm relying on your comments.  Not everything listed here may be sf/f.

Please, if you recommend something, or correct something, let me know
if it's fantasy or science fiction.

Many, many thanks...I'm sorry I can't thank you all personally.  I'll 
keep posting updated lists every couple of weeks.)
