I'm writing a book about boobies, a word I have never used this often before. Blame Stranger Things.
It will sit between fact & fiction, be bittersweet & hopefully be a performance too.
I’m looking for stories. Have a read of the blog & get in touch.

For LGBT+ History Month (#LGBTplusHM), Jo Sedley-Burke & I chatted about the 1980s, the HIV/AIDS crisis, grief, queer widowhood & my book Dancing in Heaven, interspersed by the barks of my born-deaf show cocker spaniel. Hope you enjoy it as much as we did.

See, I knew that would attract your attention. I'm working on a book with the working title 'Breasting Boobily', and it's about boobies.
