As part of our effort to profile more authors within the LGBT community, we present Fiona Zedde. Fiona was born in Jamaica and is the author of six novels, including the Lambda Literary Award finalists Bliss and Every Dark Desire. Here is an excerpt from her latest book Nightshade:

Following this week's episode of The Real L Word, in which the lovable lezzies of WeHo and beyond, bitched, fought, backstabbed, bickered and processed for an entire hour, I am loathe to admit that I was actually hoping for a little of the soft-core porn action we’ve come to know from the ‘reality’ series to spice up the episode.

This week's Litmus Test brings the ensemble cast together as they craft a nefarious plan to test Dylan's (Alex Hedison) devotion to Rachel Shelley's Helena. Meanwhile Jenny Schecter is as crazy and secure as ever, although Mia Kirshner joins in the fun for a tad. Jennifer Beals and Laurel Holloman's Bette and Tina go medieval on some Hollywood movie mogul ass and finally, some old-fashioned lesbian sex we can relate to. And where the hell is Pam Grier?
