Our outgoing LGBTQIA editor says goodbye and introduces the new queer on the block.
. It'd be an understatement to call these last two years one helluva time to be working in a newsroom, and I am proud to have been in the trenches beside all of you.
About these last two years: I, like everyone else, could have never imagined that a global pandemic would unfold in March 2020, only a few weeks after I published my first column as Q editor. A lot – like a lot – has happened since then, from the ugly – like theLGBTQIA Quality of Life Study . This space has borne witness to the spectrum that is Austin's LGBTQIA spectrum and our community's many experiences. I'll always be proud of that.
It wasn't easy arriving at this decision, but there was no doubt in my mind that anybody else besides James Scott should take over Qmmunity. I first met James in 2018 when he came on to therants, and some much-appreciated socially distanced walks around Austin. And boy howdy, can James write. If his hilarious and thoughtful writing for Qmmunity and Film is a sign of what's to come once he assumes the Q helm, then I can promise y'all are in for an absolute delight.
I can't help but think the timing of my departure has been sprinkled with some queer magic. My first-ever article as a Q intern in 2017 was an interview with cabaret legend, and lo and behold, she's receiving the Legacy Award of this week's OUTsider Festival for her work as one half of Kiki & Herb. Kinda uncanny, huh?and Qmmunity readers that this space exists for first and foremost. Hang in there, y'all.
