Hey friends! If you don't know me I'm Milo! I'm a nonbinary Latinx lesbian poet and activist, I studied sociology and library science in school and I've been here on tumblr since I was 12 or 13!
Tumblr was the first place I shared some of these poems, so it's exciting and personal to share this on here! But I wrote a poetry book! It's called This Is Why I Never Left, it's a queer feminist anti-abuse book!
The book officially releases on August 16, 2025 with Daxson Publishing but pre-orders are open now!
My target audience for this book is anyone who queer, or trans, or a woman and it's meant to challenge sexist, heteronormative ideas that keep queer people from being able to come out and express themselves fully!
I'm from Southern California and most of the book takes place between Northern and southern California, but I also mention New York City, and Mexico City, and a couple other cities in the southwest.
If you pre-order your book now, I'll send you a cute little sticker pack that matches some of the poems in the book!
Thanks for supporting me! Likes and reblogs are always appreciated if you aren't able to buy a book! :)
I set up a new website where you can purchase the book! Thanks again to everyone who's supported me, including everyone who's reblogged my post! :)
