Book marketing image.
On the left, a dark spooky scene with a brown wash over the colours of barren trees and the moon shining through a misty sky. The Blood Runner book cover appears on a paperback book, a tablet, and a smartphone over top of it. On the right, a quote from the book:
"I continued to let her have the soft voice in the dark. It was the only soft thing about me and all I could offer. 'You're not afraid of me.'
'No, Richard.' Her hand moved to splay her fingers over my lips, to feel the voice she couldn't see.
'Like a wolf with a sheep, girl. You should be.'"
He’s ancient. Cursed. And long past caring.
But she isn’t.
And that might be his undoing.

My WIP is biofiction about Billy Tipton, a 20th century transgender male jazz musician with an inspiring story. I'm seeking transgender men to speak with me about their experiences so I can write more authentically from Billy's perspective. Can you help? If so, message me here. Thanks!

The Scent of His Jumper
I'm not afraid
of these blades
nor the teeth
they shelter
and if I
should perish,
I will not flinch,
but wolf
whatsoever remains,
for as long
as the scent
of his jumper
lingers on,
I’ll find radiance
probing the corners
of the most
uninviting place.
Here's 'The Scent of His Jumper' from my poetry collection 'The Breadcrumb Trail', out now 🧚

Rose on Its Vine
Just because something is miniscule,
must it always be insecure?
I'm the littlest bit in love with you;
should you like, you could make it more.
You recognise me as you run sometimes
and I stroll in a suit and tie.
Whenever you grin, I would grin you back,
were I ever that kind of guy.
I'm a curious breed who's most at home
with a host of fluorescent pens
and I beaver away on romantic graphs
well concealed from my curious friends.
I wish to uncover a single rose
as we cross on a winter's day.
I suspect from the time I impose myself,
you'll start running a different way
and the littlest bit is my favourite part,
so the rose on its vine shall stay.
Here's 'Rose on Its Vine'.
