L Style G Style at Roger Beasley Audi
It will come as no shock to the editors of L Style G Style magazine that they are putting out a culturally transformational publication. They probably envisioned that goal all along. But the conclusion snuck up on me, as it probably has for those readers distracted at first by the Austin periodical’s glossy presentation, thematic structure and novelty page arrangement.

Yet here comes Volume 2, Issue 3, and the list of Austin GLBT leaders and their allies profiled in the magazine has accumulated to the point that L Style G Style is defining a sort of community, which may finally answer the question: Why do gay people flock to Austin?

(This issue alone: Enviromedia’s Valerie Davis, Eastside Cafe’s Elaine Martin and Dorsey Barger, Zen Buddhist priest Flint Sparks, Heritage Boot’s Jerry Ryan, OutYouth’s Matt Smith, chef and cowboy heartthrob Lou Lambert.)
Elvia Mendoza, Valerie Espinosa
Add to each issue unique launch parties, including the one Saturday at Roger Beasley Audi on Pond Springs Road. Publisher Alisa Weldon and editor Chantal Outon led a passel of people bootscooting across the dealership’s reflective floor. Hogging the attention at the buffet were little chocolate killers from Cissy’s. Randi Shade made an effective speech about the possibility of becoming Austin’s first out GLBT city council member and avoided discussing directly her opponent’s transparent dirty tricks.
