We read books by LGBTQ+ authors before. We will read books by LGBTQ+ authors now. We will read books by LGBTQ+ authors tomorrow. Literature is for and by everyone.

"Writers know that between the platonic ideal of the novel and the actual novel there is always the pesky self—vain, deluded, myopic, cowardly, compromised. That's why writing is the craft that defies craftsmanship: craftsmanship alone will not make a novel great." —Zadie Smith

This is slowly becoming my horror podcast hyperfixation miniature series.

This miniature is based on the amazing horror podcast that started my horror audio journey @parkdalehaunts.bsky.social

The story, acting, and atmosphere is top notch 10/10 yearly re-listen.

If you haven't listened to Woodbine or Parkdale Haunt yet, you're missing out!
Incredibly written, acted, and edited, both series quickly became favourites of mine. So if you're in the market for a Supernatural Mystery or a multi award winning Horror podcast... check out @parkdalehaunts.bsky.social
