London is a living, breathing anthology of stories. From Soho to Dalston, every corner whispers tales of those who dared to be different. It’s in these streets that Oscar Wilde once walked, where Virginia Woolf penned her thoughts, and where countless unnamed heroes lived authentically, even when the world wasn’t ready for them.
I wrote my book The Queer Bible as a love letter to the LGBTQ+ community, asking my heroes, including Elton John, Munroe Bergdorf, Graham Norton and Lady Phyll, to write about theirs. It was meant to be a gentle reminder of our contribution to culture and society, but now, as we see queer narratives and lives erased from government websites in the States, and the rolling back of LGBTQ+ rights at home, it’s become a rallying cry.
