Voice of LGBTIQ+ in Literature
September 2023 - June 2024
ONLINE
Voice of LGBTIQ+ in Literature is an online story writing workshop project that published a book consisting of the stories written by the participants and its target participant group is LGBTIQ+ individuals who live far from big cities. Ten examples published from the Early Republic Period to the present were read and interpreted together with the participants. During this period, two researchers, two authors of the examined examples and a publishing house founder were guests in the sessions and shared their research and experiences. The second part focused on the stories written by the participants themselves. These stories were also read together, and the opinions of all participants and the organizers of the workshop were obtained. Afterwards, the story book titled Bizden Bize Öyküler - Dokuz Yeni Kalemden Dokuz Kuir Öykü, which included these stories, was published. More than eight hundred copies of the book were delivered to many organizations, writers and editors, especially NGOs. News about the book was made in media such as Kaos GL magazine, and interviews were published.
