Still Stace, one year later!

“Still Stace” published one year ago today, Oct 19th, 2021. Happy Book Birthday, to you!   What a year.

After reading my book, we’ve chatted on Zoom, on walks, on emails about this newfoundContinue reading “Still Stace, one year later!”

HERE TO QUEER Podcast

I was recently invited onto Julie Rodgers’ new podcast “Here to Queer”! We had a lovely conversation about queer books for kids and teens & why they are important. We also chatted about the writing process, since both of us wrote a memoir (her book Outlove, mine Still Stace) – how do you decide whatContinue reading “HERE TO QUEER Podcast”

I was really honoured to be asked by two very different places to do a talk on STILL STACE. They were both recorded and can be seen below.

Learning to be brave.

Well, shoot. Right now I am working on final revisions for my manuscript for “Still Stace”. I’m also reading Glennon Doyle’s “Untamed”. This is quickly becoming a tumultuous, beautiful, terrible, gut-wrenching, wonderful, life-changing gift. I have to read it very slowly, digesting it in small bits. Sometimes in the bath (the only place to readContinue reading “Learning to be brave.”
