'So my first book is being published by Penguin Press. It’s a political discussion (‘polemic’ sounds too angry) how British trans people are discriminated against in every aspect of life. Sick of the media conversation so starting my own. Stay tuned!'

I recall that when Shon got this book deal (three, or maybe four years ago?) there was a LARGE advance - 5 figures a literary agent told me.

That's a lot of 70 quid books to sell...

Where did 70 quid come from? It’s nothing like that much.

Shon is a white born male who went to private shcool and oxbridge uni, shon has alot of friends in the media who give shon space to air shons; views to the public.

If only I were oppressed like shon is oppressed, how my life would be different.

Someone posted a link to this earlier book by Shon (publication abandoned) which would have been £70 (if it had been published).

Also on something else I was reading a TRA said pansexual was now transphobic

Joe Lycett says he’s pansexual. I wonder if they’ll come for him Hmm

Does Shon (or Joe) have any thoughts on the Californian prison ‘situation’?
