Becoming The Hero Of My Bisexual Story

Ask A Bisexual

Episode 1 of 6

Ask A Bisexual is a show aimed at busting some of the myths about bisexual women. Sheena’s guest for this season are Tara Scott, reviewer at The Lesbian Review, and Rae D Magdon, author.

In this episode Tara and Rae discuss their own bisexual story (also known as our superhero origin story). And they answer these questions from listeners:

Nita Round I've often heard it said that bi-sexuals can't decide.

Julie Versoi Yes, that we can't decide or that we're confused about our sexuality.

Erin Hodgson Prior to realising you are bisexual, did you think you were predominantly straight, or lesbian? Was it a gradual realisation/change, or was it sudden? How much of that personal journey have you shared with loved ones?

This podcast series is aimed at busting myths around bisexuality and asking folks who actually identify as bisexual.

Unconventional Lovers by Annette Mori

Book Clips

Welcome to Book Clips, the mini podcast where authors and narrators give you a taste of a book with a short snippet. In this episode we hear a reading from Unconventional Lovers by Annette Mori.

Synopsis

Bri and Siera are young women with huge hearts and strong wills; they want nothing more than to find a peaceful and secure space to be, a place that fulfills their needs and gives them the freedom to be themselves. But the world is a harsh place for anyone who is different.

Bri’s Aunt Olivia is a vet with a thriving practice. She is set in her ways, single and surviving, channeling her emotions into her work and her love of Bri.

Siera has a supportive but silent father, an overpowering helicopter mom, plus her Aunt Deb who adores her.
Despite their individual battles against hurt, prejudice and rejection, can these four women find love against the odds?
