Sue George 的自我介紹 |
關於我：
I’m a writer and editor who has written fiction and non-fiction books, plus many journal, magazine and newspaper articles.
My first novel, Death of the Family, was published by Hutchinson. It’s a psychological thriller about what happens to a young woman when her brother in law is found dead and her sister goes missing. Fay Weldon called it "extremely readable, interesting, even exciting... [with] a flavour of Patricia Highsmith and Simenon". Hilary Mantel, in the Daily Telegraph, called it “The product of a talent gone wildly astray”. Well!
Then I published Women and Bisexuality - one of a tiny handful of books on the subject ever published in the UK. Despite being (I think) totally accessible, it is used on university courses. Based on nearly 150 interviews with bi women, covering all sorts of things from x to y, it was in print for 11 years and you can still buy it here or here.
I’ve also written about bisexuality in many other places from the Journal of Bisexuality to More! magazine for young women. I blog on the subject on this site, and there’s lots more about it on my main blog, Bisexuality and beyond.
I was commissioned by The Women’s Press (the British one) to write another book about bisexuality, covering men and trans people as well as women this time. Then, after I had nearly finished writing it, they shut up shop. Because bisexuality is still so widely misunderstood, stereotyped and trivialised, and because I have been told that there is “no market” for considered books on bisexuality in the UK, I will probably publish it myself.
I have another novel, Fault Lies, which I’m currently rewriting before I submit it to the publisher. It’s the story of a woman from childhood to middle age as she tries to discover when, where and whether her mother killed her father. I call it a psychological thriller; an editor I showed it to said it was a family saga.
My next novel, currently in the research stages, will be about the British film industry in the 1920s. It’s inspired by the life of a distant relative who belonged to a famous pierrot troupe.
In my day-to-day working life, I edit special supplements for a national newspaper and write on a range of things from lovely spas to HIV/Aids.
