This list is subject to changes. Compiling a list of lesbian authors is a challenge because not all authors are out and my sources of information are limited. I had to rely on finding author bios, interviews, tweets, etc. in which an author mentions her sexual orientation. I also got many of these names from the Lesbian Authors Guild.

Hi tumblr! Since my most popular post by far was this Read Across the United States map, I felt I should stop acting like the US comprises the entire world and make an equivalent map of wlw books for the countries of the world. This list includes novels, anthologies, and memoirs that take place, and often are written by natives of, countries across the world. And again, I need some help filling in the blanks. Some areas of the world I really struggled with, and others I could see were replete with options, but the only lists I found were in the native language (sorry to say I’m a stereotypical monolingual American).
