Loud & Queer

Melbourne/Naarm-based author Danielle Scrimshaw is a historian researching queer women’s narratives in Australian history.  Her debut book 'She And Her Pretty Friend' explores the stories of convicts, a pastoralist, a doctor and the owners of Melbourne’s first female-only gym.  She spoke to Mia Ranaletta about the challenges of writing as a newly ‘out’ queer person.   Keep up with Scrimshaw's work @dani_delivers on Instagram and read 'She And Her Pretty Friend' wherever books are obtained.   If this conversation raises issues for you, call Beyond Blue on 1300 22 4636 or Lifeline on 13 11 14.  In an emergency, always call Triple Zero (000).More from us: https://linktr.ee/loudandqueersynSee omny.fm/listener for privacy information.
