"I apply a fresh coat of lipstick, defiant warpaint for a battle that doesn't exist, and leave the room."
Lipstick Traces is a short story on queer identity, visibility and online romance in the shadow of a global pandemic. It was published by Bitchin' Kitsch in Autumn 2021 as well being adapted as an audio drama in 2022. Much love to Bridget Hart, Ella McDonald and Chris Talbot-Heindl for their keen queer eyes (and Carter for being a sweet egg and the inspiration for this story) |
