And a profile with series creator Ellen Simpson, who writes all kinds of fan fiction too!

Alex and Piper and Taystee and Poussey and Flaca and Maritza, oh my!

Enough Cosima and Delphine sweetness (and smut) to keep you occupied until this weekend’s season three premiere.

Ooey gooey romantic fluff with a sprinkle of smut on top.

The world’s largest fandom playground never stops giving!

If all you want for Christmas is a little Karmy action, Santa has arrived early!

“I struggled with my sexuality for a long time and I think it would have been so much easier if I’d seen someone like me on TV or in a movies or in books. Femslash fan fiction gave me that; the stories I read showed I wasn’t alone because other people had to think like me if they’re writing about this stuff.”

Brittana and Faberry and Quinntana, oh my!

When the actual show is practically crackfic, you know the fan fiction is going to be out of this world.

Hey remember that time Brittani Nichols got her lesbian TV show produced? IT’S ONLY THE MOST EXCITING THING TO EVER HAPPEN.

Don’t worry, Tom. It’s a lesbian thing.

There is no tradition more time-honored than playing the role of a random New Yorker who discovers a corpse in Central Park on an episode of Law and Order.

After hours — probably years — of research, Dannielle has concluded that every lesbian on TV has a side part. She’s meticulously compiled her evidence in the essay contained herein.

“Tom and I in Amsterdam, cuz yeah… that’d be dangerous and hilarous. Or Jamie and I in Seoul, Korean food #FTW. Lastly Jenny and I in Brazil, for the beautiful women.”

“There were all these different bodies and shapes and colors that came in to audition, women who had gone to Juilliard or been on Broadway, but no one wants to put them on TV because they don’t necessarily fit into a TV executive’s idea of what’s beautiful.”

“I represented my community and I think there are a lot of other people in the house that kind of did them and we just did us and I think that’s what makes the show a really good, almost – if I can say this – positive Real World. I think it’s awesome because we’re us and we lived and we cried and we fucked.”

Recently, GO Magazine published an interview with Romi Klinger of The Real L Word regarding the current state of her relationships, her career, and the controversy surrounding her sexuality. What does one complicated public figure representing bisexuality mean for the rest of us?

“By the way, just to keep the record straight, I was fucking HER! She wasn’t “fucking Lea DeLaria”! I’M THE TOP!”

“At any given moment, you might turn into a rat, a demon, a werewolf, or a lesbian. In Sunnydale, no one was ever what they seemed, and by the time you’d figured someone out, they had already turned into someone else.”

A look at the stories behind the stories and the humans behind the characters and the numbers behind those stories in everybody’s favorite lezalicious prison dramedy.
