Taylor and her best friend graduate with theatre degrees and hope to continue to live together, not as lovers, but as friends. In other words, struggles with his own homosexual inclinations. In this case, Taylor’s brother, rather than being gay, struggles with his own loathing for gays. In The Queering, I wanted to explore the opposite.

I’m a pantser, so when I start to write a book, I’m not entirely sure where the story will lead. What’s the story behind the story? What inspired you to write The Queering? ![]()
