The "Women of Cubbyhole A to Z" started with pockets full of notes written on napkins, escapades, and chance encounters at lesbian bar in New York City's Greenwich Village. While this project could be seen as a tribute to the bar, Cubbyhole is merely the setting for this collection of stories, designed as a salute to Lesbian Pulp Fiction titles, presented as an A to Z series of book covers.
That said, "Women of Cubbyhole A to Z" is not a self-help dating book. Nor is it intended to recount a series of pickup lines that do or don't work. Although the book is dedicated to the bar's founder, Tanya Saunders, Ms. Gilbert believes the book has a broader appeal to anyone dating, meeting people in any kind of bar, and experiencing the mishaps of regulars, visitors, and staff. Please join Ms. Gilbert, her unnamed protagonist, and her alter-author Anon E. Mess, as they alphabetize their way through the ups and downs of being a heart-on-her-sleeve, sometimes tongue-tied, always dapper-tied, romantic raconteur.
