🌹THE SECRET GARDEN but make it queer & polyam🌹

Mary: orphaned, friendless, furious at the world
Ricky: out as pan, but not as a drag queen
Colin: trans, disabled, and afraid to leave the house

Together, they strive to embrace the prospect of a life beyond fear.

THE SECRET GARDEN but queer & polyam

Take one angry orphan, one aspiring drag queen, and one trans boy with fibro. Dump in remote nature preserve. Mix thoroughly with drag shows, gardening, and crushes. The results? Sexuality crises, teen delinquency, and healing.

I love how The Great British Sewing Bee gets so much queerer every year. It does the heart good.
