Description: In GBA 224 we get better acquainted with AJ. She talks about writing and performing poetry, finding her poetry voice as a result of transitioning, responding to banter culture, transphobia and transmisogyny, kink, sex and sexuality. This was a snatched conversation during the Edinburgh Fringe 2015 where we were both did solo shows. Our shows had a lot of cross over and that's reflected in the conversation.
