I've declined a "db-band" tag on this because I know that cannot be correct, but I have concerns about the notability here. It seems likely that these books are the equivalent of self-published, since the publishing house's website seems to list no other authors. I'm going to bring this to the attention of an editor interested in LGBT issues and see if he can steer this article one way or the other. Accounting4Taste:talk23:49, 14 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

Thank you for trying to improve the biography of Kittredge Cherry. Today I added more info and references to address the question of notability.
Regarding your concern: “It seems likely that these books are the equivalent of self-published, since the publishing house's website seems to list no other authors.” The 3 books from mainstream publishers are now clearly labeled. I can see why the books from AndroGyne Press may appear to be self-published, but they are NOT. The head of AndroGyne is a priest who runs a larger press, but he established a separate imprint for my LGBT titles because he was afraid that homophobic reactions would harm his other press. He plans to add other LGBT authors in the future. Do you want me to ask him to verify his identity to somebody at Wikipedia?
I hope the Wikipedia community will continue to help with this. Please let me know if you have other concerns.
