Leigh (L) Matthews is a queer, vegan, feminist writer living in Vancouver, BC. Her latest novel, Colony was published in September 2017, and is her first foray into speculative/science fiction. Leigh is also the author of The Old Arbutus Tree (2013), the All Out Vancouver series: Don't Bang the Barista! (2014) and Go Deep (April, 2016), and the non-fiction title Eat to Beat Acne (2015). The All Out Vancouver series is a contemporary take on the genre of lesbian pulp fiction. Set in East Vancouver, the series follows the lives of a medley of queer characters and offers all the fun, frolics and drama of classic pulp fiction, but none of the death, denial or heteronormativity. Leigh took part in Art Song Lab 2015 and 2016, and her work featured at Queerotica as part of the 2015 Queer Arts Festival. Her poetry and journalism has appeared in Hobart Pulp, Driftwood, Aesthetica, PUSH, and elsewhere. When she's not at the beach with her pup, Leigh works as a medical copywriter focusing on nutrition and public health communication. She is a qualified nutritionist with an interest in food security and intersectional vegan feminism. Leigh is fond of real ale, border collies, tea, and crumpets.
