Books and Pamphlets

Debut novel, published in 2023.
'Jesus Freaks is a book about small towns. Jesus Freaks is a book about gossip. Jesus Freaks is dedicated to everyone whose hometown wants them dead. A book of bible bashing Christianity, spirituality, small town suspicion and queerness; the misfits and the troublemakers and the lovers, but also the criminals?
Presumably your hometown wants you dead for setting fire to the school just as much as it does for kissing your next door neighbour if they happen to be a girl like you.
Maybe you burned down the school because you want to kiss your next door neighbour?
Maybe you just quite like fire."

Second poetry pamphlet, self-published in 2022.
‘These poems made me feel like a newborn baby, squealing in the delivery room for comfort and to see if anyone can still hear me as “I did not consent to live in such times.” Heart Eyes “pocket sized” achingly sweet poems speak to the detachment and loss experienced over lockdown – of language, touch and certainty.’

Debut poetry pamphlet, released in 2020 (OrangeApplePress).
The short film of the same name was included in the 2021 Scottish Queer International Film Festival selection.
'Bam! Pow! This Suit by Suki Hollywood is a feast for the eyes. A comic book with depth, the pages unfold in a progression of image, ideas, and colour. What does it mean to wear a new suit? How do we escape our past? How do we grapple with the ones we loved who hurt us? We can become a superhero! Hollywood takes us on a journey of transformation that is vulnerable, poetic, powerful, and aware. You will want to return to the pages again and again. You might even feel inspired to find your own suit!'
Tawnya Selene Renelle, This Exquisite Corpse
