Friends met, protests were made, love was found and much fun was had by so many at #ManchesterPride. It even inspired the setting for my latest novel, ONE LOVE. I’m taking some comfort that on the page at least Manchester Pride will live on ❤️🏳️🌈🐝 2/2

I'm devastated to hear that #ManchesterPride has entered liquidation. I was proud to serve as an ambassador for what I thought was the best Pride in the world, a four-day festival that celebrated the long history of acceptance and the rich queer culture of my home city… 1/2

Matt Cain's BECOMING TED is a charming love story & engaging journey through one man's quest to find himself; an every person's story of coming to terms with the world around you and crafting a spot in which to accept yourself, and love the people in your life, warts and all.

@MattCainWriter: "The gay scene saved my life. Don’t let it wither and die." With the closure of London’s iconic G-A-Y bar, Cain argues that the LGBTQ+ community is losing yet another vital safe space. Read more:

Finished the well written, poignant ‘One Love’ by @MattCainWriter a 20 year relationship between two guys…Danny at the ending? To, slightly, misquote the last line from ‘Sweet Charity’ ‘and he lived hopefully ever after’… @bertsbooks @Gayonwye

The lovely MP @OliverRyanUK very generously gave my nephew Freddy a week’s work experience - and he’s written this article about it for the @BurnleyExpress! Please read it - I’m so proud! https://t.co/LBp9jWepVs

So to find a copy of #AlbertEntwistle in a bookshop here is BEYOND a dream come true! That’s why I want to tell everyone to dream BIG - and with no limits! ❤️❤️❤️

What a joy to find my book for sale in a small town in South Africa! When I was growing up in working-class Bolton, I couldn’t imagine being a writer because I never saw any from my background. I certainly never imagined I’d visit S Africa and had never heard of Plettenberg Bay!

I’ve written a short story that will feature in the third volume of the brilliant QUEER LIFE, QUEER LOVE anthology! The Long Haul is about a gay long-distance lorry driver trying to escape a past trauma, until a chance encounter gives him the opportunity to set himself free. 1/2
