I’ve written in a lot of different styles on varied topics, although I clearly have my favourite recurring subjects. Explore the links below to read examples from each category, or select items directly from the ‘My writing’ submenu above.

I hope these writings provide ideas and inspiration for others working to promote the visibility of lesbians in all areas of life. All I ask is that anyone who quotes from or prints these pages gives full acknowledgement and adequately references the source.
