**"What a riot! A must read for all lesbians. Brilliant!"**
─ JoAnn Loulan
**"Conventional wisdom says, 'It takes one to know one.' Not necessarily so. Dykes come in all sizes, shapes, hair styles, make-up, dress, and background. Shelly Roberts provides pointers for your venture at *Dyke Detection.*"**
─ Del Martin and Phyllis Lyon
Shelly Roberts has been writing funny since she was 3 years old. Crayon was her first medium. Over the years she gave up burnt amber for MS DOS, and has teased the ticklish underbelly of the women's movement in the 70s, the absurdity of the computer revolution in the 80s, and has finally been moved to laughter by her true love, dykes of all varieties, in the 90s. Just imagine how funny she'll find the year 2000.
