For authors who are not yet 'significant' (for example, have only published one lesbian book), there are the lesser Alice B Lavender Certificates. The main awards are a good place to look for reliably lesbian authors, while the certificates highlight recent authors and books worth reading.
Note: where we have reviewed an author on the site, their name links to everything tagged under that author.
