Few crimes in gay history rocked a nation as great as The DRAG Queen Killer. The country seemed paralyzed from the first ring of the chain tapping on the concrete, as they pulled Cassandra to her death, until the very last brutal killing. The murderous rampage seemed buried among the media suffering from a barrage of tales from the 9-11 terrorist attacks.

         “Old school, new school, no school… who gives a shit? I’m too old to go to school. I barely remember last week. When I get too old to remember what the fuck I did when I was young …ger, I’ll just open one of these books and laugh my ass off. I wonder how many other queens had this much fun becoming one of the icons of their community. Too funny. I just called myself an icon. Hell, I must be a queen. Only a female impersonator could call themselves a diva, a queen, a star without people giggling behind her back. Giggling is good. A twenty-dollar bill is better.”

The largest bullying project in LGBT history for struggling entertainers. Advice from over a hundred male, female, and androgynous impersonators around the world to help entertainers struggling with their family, peers, relationships, neighbors, regular jobs, venues, and successfully overcoming self-doubt. Best-selling author Todd Kachinski Kottmeier created DRAG411 to document the lives of impersonator years ago. It is now the largest organization for impersonators on earth with over 7,000 entertainers in 32 countries.

More than 100 people contributed to developing and answering the questions that comprise the chapters of this book. We chose the best, most comprehensive, insightful, or most common. To all of the contributing writers, we owe a debt of gratitude for the thousands of words donated to help inspire, motivate, and show a world, “they are not alone.” We asked thousands of male, female, and androgynous impersonators to send us anonymous words of wisdom to share on these topics. We did not place credit to each sentence crediting each entertainer for a reason. Often when people get mad at someone, they ignore even their helpful advice. We needed someone bullied to understand the wisdom, untethered by preconceived attitudes. Sometimes the person you may dislike the most, survived the exact same situation. DRAG BULLY is about survival; its words donated without conditional support by performers, including: AJ Menendez, Alana Chapelle, Alexandra Bond, Amy DeMilo, Anastacia Rose, Anastasia C Principle, Anita Rivera, Ashl Farrington, Ashton "the origin8r", Aurora Lee Richards, B.

          I sent hundreds of invitations in 2012 to the titleholders, pageant promoters, judges, and talent show hosts to share their wisdom. I asked each of them to send the questions crown holders they also respect as role models. Their insight to win pageants and contests is the same knowledge you need to perform every time you walk out on a stage. Every show you do needs to be as incredible as the best show. They reached into their hearts to share the following subjects with you: Auxiliary steps to success needed for Song Selection, dancing, movement on stage, props, backup dancers, creating your own edge, personal interviews, steps to success for winning the Talent category of the contest, On-Stage Questions, Eveningwear, and Creative Costume. They talk about wardrobe changes, makeup, hair, shoes, when it is time to compete, and the misconceptions competing.

First Script: Best Said Dead

          Best Said Dead examines in funny conversations those brief minutes after a person dies. Many religions and beliefs define different paths for each of us. Rarely do we discuss those precious moments between death and the final destination. This comedy opens the possibilities that for a moment, a person vanishes into the memories in their mind.

Second Script: Following Wynter

          Following Wynter is a hilarious comedy play. Ethan discovers his newlywed husband is the flamboyant DRAG queen Wynter Storm in this whimsical farce with an important message of believing in yourself and your friends. . . even if your friend is Serena Silver. Any part can be male, female, or ambiguous.
