List of LGBTQ writers

This list of LGBTQ writers includes writers who are lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender or queer or otherwise non-heterosexual, non-heteroromantic or non-cisgender who have written about LGBTQ themes, elements or about LGBTQ issues. Works of these authors are part of LGBT literature.

As this list includes writers from antiquity until the present, it is clearly understood that the term "LGBTQ" may not ideally describe the identity of all authors, particularly for those who wrote before the nineteenth century. In some cases, it is more useful to consider such authors as persons who expressed attractions for persons of the same sex (for example, Sappho or Plato), and avoid the anachronistic use of contemporary labels. Inclusion in this list follows general scholarly and academic norms, specified in references, that attempt to establish a genealogy or history of LGBTQ literature written by LGBTQ people. There are many additional non-LGBTQ authors who have written works on LGBTQ topics. All new additions to this list should include a reference.
