With International Coming Out Day just around the corner (11-10-12) it seems an apposite time to tell people about the RUComing Out Website, which deals with precisely that subject. It’s worth visiting, especially if you are a lesbian and/or black, since most of the coming out stories so far are from white men.
In the meantime, check out the tiny little stocking filler Out 14o, a touching book of 140 tweets gathered by Shelley Telly and Vince Laws at Norfolk Pride dealing with personal experiences of coming out LGB or T.
You can follow OUT140 on Twitter at

You can buy the book for £1.40 + P&P from:
shell@shellytelly.co.uk
What’s next for the project? “OUT140: The Play” coming in 2013 as part of Norwich Pride’s 5th birthday celebrations.
