I #write #literary themed #SpecFic (including #fantasy #SF and #YA )

(Though my current #WIP is #contemporarylit about an illiterate performance poet (PLEASE ASK ME ABOUT IT!))

#Queer in a #gay way with my #jazz pianist husband

@Noel I read loads of things, much more #fiction than #nonfiction, #ClassicNovels #ContemporaryLit #SFF #crime #lgbtFiction - I try not to close my mind to any genre really

To make connections: name things that interest you but aren't in your profile, as tags that are searchable. Then boost/repeat its instructions so others know to do the same.
