This is Chick-Lit.

We've received our first review for This is Chick-Lit from Bust Magazine (August/September issue). Bust Magazine is a publication I know nothing about, but a quick Google search tells me it's "a pop culture feminist publication from New York, NY."

Like a lot of snotty literary types, I have often sneered at chick lit …
I’m here to tell you: I was wrong.

That's how the review opens. And then the reviewer discusses This is Not Chick Lit and This is Chick Lit. The review is called Girl Fight.

I used to be a snotty literary type. Until I published my first novel. The only people who didn't ask why I was writing that kind of fiction were genre authors (romance, mystery, thriller, sci-fi), commercial authors, self-published authors and chick-lit authors. They just gave me much-needed support and I gained a new respect for them. Now I strive to be the same way.

There's a lot to be said for people who don't judge others by the covers of the books they choose to read. Or write.

And that's the key, isn't it? Choice.

My contribution to the anthology is called Nice Jewish Boy. It's about the only black woman at a bris searching for Mr. Right.
