The Unique Concerns of the LGBTQ Community
We are currently experiencing a frightening time in the world as a pandemic has brought our lives and livelihoods to a screeching halt. I wanted to share a letter from the GLMA: Health Professionals Advancing LGBTQ Equality. There are unique concerns for the LGBTQ community. Established in 1981, the GLMA has been on the forefront […]
It All Started with Sappho
In November of 2019 I premiered my 100% straight play The Last Word in Los Angeles. After a show a group of lesbians came up to me and asked me if I’d consider turning the play into an lgbtq script and bring it to LA.  Within weeks I decided to tweak it and, yes, […]
The L-Word and it’s New Generation
I turned on the show and the first scene to jar me was a full on gratuitous sex scene between two of the new kids on the block.
Global Tragedies and Gay Rights
@2018 Jan Miller Corran It’s been many months since I’ve written an article for Epochalips.

LGBTQ Rights! We’re Never Going Back.
Today I was remembering that glorious month in 2004 when same-sex weddings took place between February 12 and March 11, 2004, after San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom directed the city-county clerk to issue marriage licenses to same sex couples. It was one month where we felt the freedom to love and be just like our parents and […]

Make America Gay Again
I just listened to Senator Harry Reid, the Minority Leader address the Senate in regards to the enormous impact Donald Trump’s verbiage and actions have had on Americans who seemingly don’t fit the ideology, religion, ethnicity, race, or sexual orientation that Trump and his cohorts have adopted as their poster people. I know. Run on […]
