In Their Shoes

LONGLISTED FOR THE POLARI FIRST BOOK PRIZE 2021 'Beautiful, heart-breaking and hilarious.' SCARLETT CURTIS 'A love-letter to our non-binary siblings.' PAULA AKPAN 'Jamie is a pioneer' JUNO DAWSON "There is no one way to be non-binary, and that's truthfully one of the best things about it. It's an identity that is yours to shape." Combining light-hearted anecdotes with their own hard-won wisdom, Jamie Windust explores everything from fashion, dating, relationships and family, through to mental health, work and future key debates. From trying on clothes in secret to iconic looks, first dates to polyamorous liaisons, passports to pronouns, Jamie shows you how to navigate the world and your evolving identity in every type of situation. Frank, funny, and brilliantly feisty, this must-read book is a call to arms for non-binary self-acceptance, self-appreciation and self-celebration.

They have written for The Independent, Gay Times, British GQ, Cosmopolitan and INTO More, and were named as one of London's most influential people, in the story telling category, by the Evening Standard.
