GUY WOAKE writes a blog...
“I am just ‘Me’ and ‘Me’ is a person I don’t judge or apologise for. We are all our own people, right? The only difference being, ‘YOU’ are amazing ‘YOU’, and ‘I’m’ amazing ‘ME’, aka ‘Guy’, identified by my biological ‘parents’ as ‘male’ before that concept was identified as meaningless.”
.... He's a straight, white, cis male born into a racist, heteronormative, transphobic, patriarchal world. But all these things offend him and he's trying his best to be better.
Guy is 18 years old, a lonely fresher, studying 'Waste Water Recyclement' at the Uni of Lakeside, Brighton. He misses his family. He misses his dog. He's outraged by the state of the world, and he's bored with recycling water.
"If you want to change stuff," he tells himself, "you have to DO stuff." So he starts his blog ... which he posts, unflaggingly, to deafening silence ... until the campus bullies catch sight of it, and for better and worse, Guy's uneventful life is turned upside down.
Genre: General Fiction
