A bit about me 🙂 I am alive. Actually, I am 68 years old and cash at Superstore. I am nearly finished with a full re-edit of my book, Countdown, the first of three in a series. 

Malcolm Crockett

Malcolm Crockett’s book offers readers an intimate yet far-reaching exploration of what it means to live and work ethically inside systems that quietly withdraw protection, legitimacy, and safety from those deemed “other.” Part memoir, part social history, and part literary narrative, No Backup – A Set Up and More: the Accomplishments of a Good Fairy, traces the author’s journey from childhood illness and cultural displacement to professional life as a young gay social worker navigating institutional hostility

No registration required, please drop in to enjoy this afternoon of literary discussion and community building. Refreshments and treats will be provided.
