Joy//Us Poems of Queer Joy online book launch

Join a delightful crowd of LGBTQ+ poets spreading queer joy for IDAHOBIT - International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia.

Joy//Us came out of a workshop we ran last January and has grown via more workshops and spreading the word around the UK Queer community and a successful crowdfund into a magnificent collection of Queer Joy. Whether it is first love, passionate friendship, acts of allyship, discovering icons from history, or a dance with strangers, the pefect jeans, an identity affirming haircut or… flint knapping, Queer Joy is everywhere, just waiting to be found, and how better to show the haters what we think of them than to have some fun?

It really is a crowd too, so many of our poets want to be involved!
