Meanwhile, the author, Joel Derfner, is hosting a "Gayest Person Ever" contest on his website:
"Enter the first annual Gay-OffBecause gayness can express itself in many different ways and isn't just a flaming queen (although they're fun, too), I ask you: What would the "gayest" person look/be like? I encourage postings of pictures and a comments discussion about what makes someone fabulously gay...
If you're interested in competing, e-mail [Derfner] a brief explanation (up to 100 words) of why you should be crowned this year's Gayest Person Ever. Note, please, that in order to enter you do not have to be gay or even, I suppose, a person. The Gayest Person Ever describes an existential state, irrespective of plumbing and flavor...
...At the moment I'm planning prizes as follows: the Grand Prize is an inscribed copy of Swish, an inscribed copy of my first book, Gay Haiku, a Swish T-shirt, a gay haiku written for the winner, and, depending on geographic location, a tin of homemade brownies made with loving care by me. Second prize is an inscribed copy of Gay Haiku, a Swish T-shirt, a gay haiku written for the winner, and a tin of brownies slightly inferior to the tin the Grand Prize winner gets. Third prize is a Swish T-shirt, a gay haiku written for the winner, and a tin of brownies slightly inferior to the tin the Second Prize winner gets. However, the actual prizes may be different from this, like if I eat the brownies or something."
