Some people drink coffee. Some people drink tea. But for most of us, it’s a ritual — the tiny moment that kick-starts the day or the writing brain. For me, it’s a proper cappuccino when I want comfort, and Robert Timms Mocha Kenya when I need a creative jolt strong enough to wake the dead. Smooth, bold, no nonsense. What about you? Coffee or tea? Which blend, bean, leaf, or brand keeps you alive (or at least functional)? Tell me your go-to — I’m always curious what fuels other readers and writers.

Hi everyone, and welcome! I’m Daz James, and this is a space where my stories, reflections, and creative explorations come to life. Here, you’ll get access to the worlds I’m building — from LGBTIQA+ characters navigating adventures, to serialized tales, and beyond. This community is also a place for you to engage, share ideas, and maybe even influence the stories as they grow. I’ll be experimenting with content, exploring deeper reflections, and sharing additional materials that make the worlds bigger, bolder, and more immersive. Eventually, I hope to host writing workshops here too — a chance to share skills, collaborate, and dive into storytelling together. Your input will help shape what we explore. Thanks for joining me on this journey. Dive in, explore, comment, and enjoy the ride — there’s plenty of storytelling (and maybe coffee-fueled chaos) to go around! I will be dropping episodes each week so come back for more. Happy reading, — Daz So, what is your comfort read of all time? Message in the comments. This helps me to understand your tastes. Mine, is Tales of the City by Armistead Maupin. Just outrageously fun and so fabulous.
