We set a guy on fire!
What a great way to start the year & also to wrap up our last day of principal photography for The Moon is a Hologram!
Yes, we are done with filming! It's kind of emotional!
Thank you so much to everybody who helped make this film happen! I can't wait for you all to see it!

Truly awful news. My thoughts are with the victims and their families.

From a Reddit post called "AITA for disregarding my sibling's movie recommendations", made me laugh, am I a bad person for taking delight that my movie caused conflict between siblings?

My heart is breaking! RIP Udo Kier! ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ
We tend to think book lovers contribute nothing to society, but it was Madeleine L'Engle who said, "The first people a dictator puts in jail are the writers, the teachers, the librarians-because these people are dangerous. Let us have the courage to go on being dangerous people."
I got to see the incredible Olivie Blake discuss her new book Girl Dinner at Waterstones in Manchester tonight. It was a truly inspiring talk!

New book day! Needed something to read for my trip to London!
Especially excited for Brigands & Breadknives, I love the Legends & Lattes series so much, and now more so than ever I need something comforting and cosy.
Herculine was a gift from my friend Matthew.

On set of The Moon is a Hologram!
We had a Pink Cadillac!!!
A photograph of a bookshelf. The books in it are A Quiet Universe, A Sea of Silence and A Mask for the Sun by Kay F. Atkinson, (kimmy) by Alyson Greaves, Sisters of Manchester by Selene Kapsaski and Jeff O'Brien, The Book of Queer Saints Volume II edited by Mae Murray, MAEJ by Dale Stromberg, A Rotten Girl by J. Ursula Topaz, The Brute of Greengrave by Jemma Topaz, Rotgut by H.S. Wolfe and Trans Rites: An Anthology of Genderfucked Horror. Beside the books stands a crochet opossum in trans pride flag colors, wearing a little top hat and a jester collar.
Got some new trans books recently. #samreads. A bunch I've already read and loved enough to grant them some prime real estate on my bookshelf, a few (Sisters of Manchester, Queer Saints II, The Brute & Trans Rites) are new additions :) (+ my little clown opossum from a local queer art con!).
aw, thank you ๐ฅฐ
Lux took me out to Queer Lit followed by pre-birthday drinks in the gay village. I had a really fun time. Life has been pretty hard lately, it was good to get away and forget about all the bs for an evening.
Another fantastic day of filming for The Moon is a Hologram! We shot with the incredible India Willoughby @indiawilloughby.bsky.social and the very talented Jay Giblin. Only three more scenes left to shoot!

Big news everybody! I can finally share that the one and only Kate Nash will play a role in The Moon is a Hologram!

These days I manage about 2 in a month on average.
This is probably like only the second post I saw about it at all, and the other post just came from someone who just doesn't like Jared Leto. So yeah, it's not going great for someone at Disney's marketing team.

At this point I feel like I have seen the film already.
Sisters of Manchester is a supernatural horror novel featuring a trans main character, witches, time travel, Motรถrhead and recipes for poisonous cookies. (seriously don't make those cookies)

This week I have officially begun working on the soundtrack to the new Selene Kapsaski (Spidarlings) feature film The Moon is a Hologram. It's throwing me back to the decade I first entered a recording studio... kinda nice x
I spoke with the wonderful Diana Abbani about my book "The Hour of Absinthe", published as part of the #MECAM blog series on TRAFO (the Blog for Transregional Research): trafo.hypotheses.org/60708
