We’re so delighted that @joshuaidehen80 Songbook: Collected Works is a @PoetryBookSoc Winter Recommendation ✨🥂 This book has been a long time coming, and its recognition by the PBS selectors is testament to Josh’s vital contribution to poetry.

I did not expect to cry so much writing my independent writing project. What started as a collection of fiction evolved into auto-fiction. What should have been experimenting with writing became writing for therapy. It ain't easy growing up gay.
