Zero Street Fiction book covers

July 9, 2024

Zero Street Fiction, the LGBTQ+ series co-edited by Timothy Schaffert for the University of Nebraska Press, had a remarkable June.

The most recent release, I Make Envy on Your Disco, receive mention in the Washington Post ("a funny and moving debut") in its article "Four books to read for Pride Month"; and it was recommended by Andy Cohen on his Bravo TV talk show, "What Happens Live."

Forget I Told You This, the first release for Zero Street published September 2023, was released in May as an audiobook. It debuted at number one in the category of LGBTQ+ Thrillers and Suspense audiobooks and has remained in the top 40 since.

The upcoming fall release, All Daughters Are Awesome Everywhere, received a rave review from Kirkus Reviews, calling the author DeMisty Bellinger "an important voice."

Zero Street Fiction is committed to LGBTQ+ literary fiction with commercial potential, providing LGBTQ+ authors opportunities in the trade fiction market. Schaffert is the bestselling author of The Perfume Thief and director of the Department of English's Creative Writing Program. SJ Sindu, author of Blue-Skinned Gods, is the other series editor.
