Diary of a Drag Queen
Diary of a Drag Queen | Crystal Rasmussen
2 posts | 3 read | 8 to read
Life's a drag... Why not be a queen? 'Stories like the one where you shagged a 79-year-old builder and knocked over his sisters ashes while feeding him a Viagra. Or the time you crashed your car because you were giving a hand job in barely moving traffic and took your eye off the car in front. Thats the kind of dinner-party ice-breaker Im talking about.' Northern, working-class and shagging men three times her age, Crystal writes candidly about her search for the one; sleeping with a VIP in an attempt to become a world famous journalist; getting hired and fired by a well-known fashion magazine; being torn between losing weight and gorging on KFC; and her need for constant sexual satisfaction (and where that takes her). Charting her day-to-day adventures over the course of a year, we encounter tucks, twists and sucks, heinous overspending and endless nights spent sprinting from problem to problem in a full face of make-up. This is a place where the previously unspeakable becomes the commendable a unique portrayal of the queer experience.

Hilarious, tender, hardhitting, raunchy, respectful, educational - I have no idea how one book did all these. I felt like I‘d made a new best friend but it didn‘t hold back showing dark, traumatic things.

So much respect for how Crystal never excluded any of the LGBTQIA+ community including areas they weren‘t part of or specifically writing about. I so rarely see my bisexuality validated this much!

A very dear friend has released his first novel, A Queen of Blood and Glitter! I contributed fan art of our heroine to the book, yay. If you like the Fae, drag queens, sass and the fantastic, I highly recommend snagging a copy on Amazon.
