My vision. It haunts you.
Still from Mean Girls of the mean girls with Wolf Hall characters' faces badly snipped over them.

I'm too queer for this. Also it is a CRACKING tune. May have to lie down
white woman wearing red leans back and sings against dark, soft focus background man lies on floor looking up as someone presses red high heel into his mouth four women bend over backwards, make eye contact, and scream

At the first ever pride march in Stroud. Shockingly emotional, and more thoughts to follow, but for now enjoy the sign I wrote in a rush this morning
Person with a walking stick and sunhat faces away, with a cardboard sign on their back. The sign reads "Baroness Falkner wants to know how you piss!" with the "YOU" emphasised.

She then, wonderfully, sent me the following while I was still trying to recover from my wheezing laughter - it's the cover art for the story with some ah... minor tweaks.

you can read the story for free here:

Art of a ginger, freckled woman in profile. She is holding a cigarette and looking thoughtful. The background is dark blue swirls with some sparkles, a little reminiscent of Starry Starry night. Text has been superimposed, reading "Please do not speak to me about the prophecy: I've moved on"

So you may know I wrote a short story about a Prophesied Chosen One figuring out what to do with the rest of her life. If you didn't know, now you do! And yesterday a friend sent a meme that had me laughing for, oh, 20 mins? Anyway, this is my favourite summary of The Life And Times of Angel Evans:
A faceless figure in chain mail and a cloak stands in front of a threatening throne, holding a sword before them. Over the top, text has been superimposed. The text reads "please do not speak to me about the prophecy I've moved on"

And finally, Billie Piper is in it as Cassandra. Which was fucking great.
Two women in a supermarket. One (acted by Billie Piper) is dirty and messy, dusty jacket, bleach blond hair, looking towards the other woman (acted by Aurora Perrineau) who stares into camera with a slight frown. She is clean, wearing a colourful jacket, with her hair in a bun on top of her head.

Some of my writing! I need to remake this image with the latest poetry collection included
Image shows three book covers on a black background, with little pink hearts outlined across the bottom. From left to right the covers are: ONE a bleak stony beach in daylight with clouds and only very distant sea, titled Midnight Seabones. TWO A drawing of a heraldic shield in quarters, with a tentacle, a magpie, a well. The fourth quarter is being bitten into by a strange creature with some feathers and some scales and a big eye. It is titled Tales From Tantamount. THREE an illustration of a person with ginger hair wearing a brown coat and holding a cigarette in profile. They have ear piercings, freckles, some make up. They are surrounded by blue smoky swirls. The title is The Life and Times of Angel Evans. There is a link at the bottom of the page: https://ko-fi.com/meredithdebonnaire

And if you would like to read my poetry where I have Big Queer Feelings, I have two collections available to download as PDFs, also over on my ko-fi: ko-fi.com/meredithdebo...
There's also a lot of my poetry up on the aforementioned blog, so you can explore a lot without spending any money
Purple-themed bookcover showing a person in a tank top doing something with a screwdriver to a shelf. Text is overlaid: in the top right "it all goes on forever dunnit". Across the centre "Meredith Debonnaire" and separately "Performing DIY of the Soul". at the bottom the subtitle "Yet another queer poetry collection by Meredith Debonnaire" A book cover: photo shows a stony extended beach, with dark silhouettes of boats in the distance. The horizon is deep blue, and the sea and the sky blend. Across the top of the photo, in the sky, the text reads "Midnight Seabones: A Collection of Queer Poetry" Across the bottom in smaller white text "By Meredith Debonnaire"
