This Book Is Gay Photograph: Jam DawsonIf I were to be llected the Tardis and flown back to 1996 there are several thgs 15-year-old Jam Dawson would not believe if I were allowed to talk wh him: He wouldn't believe he'd one day meet Sporty Spice; he wouldn't believe he'd work wh Ace om Doctor Who; he fely wouldn't believe he'd bee a published YA of all those, the thg he would be least likely to accept is that he would one day be proud to be gay. You see, 15-year-old-Jam Dawson extribly lked beg gay to beg wrong, nghty, flty and broken.

To him, gay people were dirty, they weren't as good as straight people. The lsons were both explic – people at school llg me Dolly Dawson, or simply, poofter – and implic; there were no gay role mols anywhere sight.

GAY COLOUR BOOKS: THE BIG RED BALL NO. 5 PAPERBACK – 1 JUNE 1975

So I I was 16, I realised I uldn't image a future wh a wife, but uld wh a hband, and that was what beg gay is. You see, I also thought that beg gay equalled ath. This week se the publitn of a book I have wrten lled, This Book Is Gay a non-fictn book which I claim I uld not be prour to be a gay man.

Rights have sold Ameri, Germany, Spa, Brazil and the Czech Republic (so far) so I'm pretty much tellg the world how gay I am. Those that do teach a hundred per cent of pupils sex tn that is only relevant to nety-five per cent of reason I am nstantly harpg on about sexualy is the hope that some of those young people who are hidg, n see and hear me – a vaguely succsful and very happy gay man beg succsful and happy. I hope people will read This Book Is Gay wh pri, bee while we are as normal as the day is long, the rt of the world don't always see that way.
