It's #LGBTplusHM and so here's a cheeky reminder of my two history-making same-sex love stories. The Polari Prize-winning #NenAndTheLonelyFisherman (words by Ian Eagleton) & #TheFrogsKiss created with my hubby #TotoMartinez . Oh & a Favourite snap of me & Toto in Southwold!
Itβs LGBT History Month!
I have a few author events coming up, plus the next leg of The Polari Prize National Showcase, supported by Arts Council England, London
Over the next few months I'll be in Bath, Bedford, Greenwich, Hemel Hempstead, Huddersfield, Norwich, Peckham and York.
