— Review of Potty Mouth, Potty Mouth Alex Creece , 2024 selected work poetry

'Alex Creece’s Potty Mouth, Potty Mouth is a reckless, glorious, grotty revolution. It’s an insubordinate ‘kissyface of cobwebs’ that sticks it to capitalism, heteronormativity and the patriarchy.' (Introduction)

'A defiant, unflinching exploration of gender identity, gender discrimination and gender euphoria

'let me tell you how to lean gently on one another without rocking sideways.

'Rae White's much-anticipated second poetry collection, Exactly As I Am, speaks to their lived experience as a non-binary transgender person. Their defiant, unruly poems interrogate the spaces transgender people are both assigned and denied in society, through unflinching explorations of gender identity, gender discrimination and gender euphoria. These poems lean against you, hold out their hand and offer you- a connection, a community, a call to action.' (Publication summary)
