    I've just donated to this. I think it's a really good, positive, vital idea - so important to honour our shared history & provide real community to our LGBTQ+ family.

    Ah, directed by a man. Interesting choice! Watch my video for Skim instead, which came out a year ago today. Directed by a queer woman!

    I’ve loved ’s books since I read Prep age 16. I have one story left of You Think It, I’ll Say It, and I just don’t want it to be finished. Such sharp and funny stories about self-centred desire and projection.
