I slaved away in the second wave
Writing for you
For something to do.
The result is ‘His Ladyship‘ …
It’s LGBTQ.
Agents did not jump for joy
When they read about a girl
Who used to be a boy.
Apparently ‘coming out’
Is so last year,
They wanted something different
Another rejection, I fear.
So, onwards and upwards…
I’ll publish the bleeder,
But first I need
An ARC reader.
Two would be great, or even three
Just leave a comment
Or email me.
For me, the writing season will soon have passed,
Writing any more I cannot be arsed.
My caravan calls on the Isle of Wight,
Soon be time to go out in the sun
And get on my bike.
So if ‘coming out’ stories make your day

I’d love to read it, as technical. And to see if it’s a coming of age, or a tear jerker or has a real gut thumper like Janie won’t wrestle Jenny cause Jenny has the wrong plumbing. There’s an old adage about writing “topically” and it goes along the line of buying things at the grocery store that will hit their sell by date before the package gets opened. The worst offenders are kids books because they can be cranked out almost immediately in response to social headlines.

Yay, Mr Huston! You’re the only one brave enough to take it on so far. I hope you won’t be shocked when you read about Norman’s plumbing issues…

A great poetic announcement. I am sorry, but i am a very slow reader, Stevie! I am sure there will be one with the gene of “overnight reading”. Michael

Nicely done, Stevie. I have seen a lot of reviews for Teen/YA LGBTQ books, it has to be said. But I have yet to read one of the books. 🙂
Best wishes, Pete.

It’s not Teen/YA – that was just the poetry.
