Publishing Triangle Award for Trans and Gender-Variant Literature

The Leslie Feinberg Award for Trans and Gender-Variant Literature (formerly The Publishing Triangle Award for Trans and Gender-Variant Literature) is an annual literary award, presented by Publishing Triangle to honour works of literature on transgender themes.[1] The award may be presented for work in any genre of literature; to be eligible, a work of poetry or fiction must be written by a transgender or gender variant author, while a work of non-fiction may be written or cowritten by a cisgender writer as long as it addresses transgender themes.

The award comes with a cash prize of USD1,000.[1]
