Description

This week on Live! with Fefe, I had the pleasure of chatting with Victor Yates, an award-winning writer, typewriter poet, and content creator whose work uplifts and celebrates queer voices.


Victor shared the inspiration behind his debut novel, A Love Like Blood, which earned the 2016 Lambda Literary Award for LGBT Debut Fiction. We also discussed his creative process, his passion for storytelling, and his experiences as a member of Pride Poets, a queer typewriter collective.


In addition to his literary achievements, Victor is a contestant on the gay dating reality show For the Love of DILFs, premiering November 26 on OUTtv. During our conversation, he gave us a behind-the-scenes look at his reality TV journey and offered insights into balancing creativity with the unique demands of the show.


In This Episode:



  • Victor’s journey as an author and poet

  • The creative process behind A Love Like Blood

  • Exploring queer identity and storytelling

  • Insights into his experience on For the Love of DILFs

Tune in to this engaging conversation about writing, advocacy, and the power of queer representation in storytelling.
