The Queer Chennai Chronicles is an Indian LGBT literary organization that aims to promote lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer literature through programs that encourage development of emerging writers and through annual Queer LitFest, Chennai.
Function
Queer Chennai Chronicles (also referred to as QCC) was founded in 2017 by gay activist Moulee and writer LJ Violet[1]. The forum promotes LGBTQIA+ literature through the annual Queer LitFest, Chennai[2][3], through books by LGBTQIA+ identified authors[4], literary events and workshops, and by periodical resource development and publications.
Queer LitFest, Chennai
The Annual Queer LitFest, Chennai takes place in the Indian city Chennai, Tamil Nadu. The first edition of the Chennai Queer LitFest was organised in July 2018.[5]. he festival began as the brain child of Chennai-based queer activist Moulee, who thought there was a need for a wider discussion on queer literature in India that would bring queer writers, translators and allies together.[6][7][8] Moulee is also the director and curator of the festival. The 2018 QLF was co-curated by writer and translator LJ Violet along with Moulee.[8][9]
