Winning over 100 industry awards - including a D&AD and numerous Cannes Lions - with campaigns for a diverse list of clients that includes Guinness, Unilever, Oxfam and the RAF. After 30 years working for some of London's biggest agencies, in 2016, Daren jacked it all in and carved out time to write about Brighton's vibrant queer present and past. Inspired by an exhibition he helped to curate at the city's museum, called Queer the Pier, and his adoration for E F Benson's Mapp & Lucia series of novels, he refocused his passion for words to write The Brightonians, a queer tale of life beyond the picture postcards and candy floss of this far-from-quintessential seaside town, which draws a group of bitchy socialites back to the saucier side of 1960s Brighton. Drag queens, gay porn, fancy-dress parties - what's not to love! With over 70 reviews and an average rating of 4.5 on www.goodreads.co.uk and www.amazon.co.uk quite a few people agreed! Fingers crossed they like how this band of colourful Brightonians cope with the biggest social science experiment the world has ever seen: the global lockdown.weniger sehen
