In this episode, I’m joined by novelist and journalist Jordyn Taylor to talk about her adult debut See You at the Summit and why bisexual representation in romance still matters.We dig into bi-erasure, “double discrimination,” and what it means to claim your identity even when the world reads you incorrectly. Jordyn also shares how her background as a sex and relationships editor shaped her fiction, why she chose Canada as the setting for her adult debut, and how fitness (yes, Hyrox!) fuels her creative life. Plus, we swap book recommendations that explore queer relationships, polyamory, and emotionally devastating love stories you’ll never forget.📚 Books Mentioned See You at the Summit by Jordyn Taylor — Queer Romance | Contemporary Rom-Com | Coming Out StoryTriple Sec by TJ Alexander— Polyamorous Romance | LGBTQ+ | ContemporaryAtmosphere by Taylor Jenkins Reid — Historical Fiction | Queer Love Story | Audiobook Favorite⏱️ Episode Timestamps[00:00] Jordyn Taylor’s writing journey and adult debut[02:30] Why bisexual representation needs nuance[05:30] Bi-erasure and “double discrimination”[08:00] Setting queer romance in Canada[10:30] Hyrox, fitness culture, and creative discipline[15:00] Polyamory in romance fiction (Triple Sec)[17:00] Emotional audiobooks and Atmosphere[18:45] Where to find Jordyn and what’s nextJoin the ConversationSubscribe to our Substack for exclusive recommendations.
