A local publisher and author. Very new. Thanks @CarolynM . I was able to get it from library. I found the style of writing different but enjoyable. There was not a lot of emotion , very matter of fact. Making the read even more enjoyable was the walk down memory lane for me with situations and places I knew from the 70s and onward.
A champion for gay and trans rights. The law has come a long way thanks to people like Andrea. ❤️🌈

From her early days as Gerald in the Midlands, Zambia & an English boarding school, establishing her identity as Geraldine as a teenager in the prog & punk music scenes of the 1970s, finding herself transplanted to far away Perth & its underwhelming (to her) music scene in the early ‘80s to throwing herself into the battle for LGBT law reform in the 90s & 00s Geraldine insists on her right to be unashamedly herself. And she is excellent company ⬇️
