Description
I was a quiet boy with loud dreams. But dreams don't grow well in a house full of fear.
As a gay child in a home where silence meant survival, I learned to vanish. For years, I kept my voice hidden - not just from the world, but from myself.
Then came music. Drag. Glitter. Applause.
And, for a time, freedom. Onstage, I could be someone bigger than the pain. For twenty years, I sang and performed my way into pieces of joy I never thought I'd know.
But trauma has its own rhythm.
In the quiet of the covid years, the past came roaring back. I lost my voice again - this time to adulthood pain, depression, and the unhealed echoes of my childhood. STILLNESS and SURVIVAL, is a story of silence and expression, queerness and survival, collapse and return. It is about finding your own voice - again and again - even when the world tries to take it away.
This is not just a memoir.
It's a reclaiming.
