You know how much I love Coyote stories, and how much I love the LeVar Burton Reads podcast, so the following made my day:
"Skinwalker, Fast-Talker" by Darcie Little Badger, from the anthology _No Shit, There I Was_
read by LeVar Burton on LeVar Burton Reads
http://www.levarburtonpodcast.com/

The story features a queer female journalist who goes nose-to-nose with Coyote and, while it is a very amusing story, LeVar has some very poignant things to say in his afterword.

Rebecca Roanhorse also writes about Coyote and Native American legend in her book _Trail of Lightning_

and I recently heard her read her story from _Deer Woman: An Anthology_
http://www.levarburtonpodcast.com/
Here is a list of fiction and nonfiction, including her new book

Lastly, because I just love the theme for this Kickstarter anthology, is
_Trans-Galactic Bike Ride_, a Queer Feminist SFF collection of transgender and nonbinary led science fiction and fantasy stories about bicycling.
