For @movember.au ambassador Luke Bateman, books – especially those of his preferred fantasy genre – were once a source of shame; something he would hide from friends and bury at the bottom of his travel bag on footy trips.
“None of my friends were readers, and not many men in my community were readers either,” he tells Men’s Health. “I’d keep it very private. I wouldn’t let any of the other boys know that I was a reader, especially not of fantasy and romance.”
Now, Bateman has rebuilt his life around the passion he used to hide. This Movember, he wants other men to embrace vulnerability, find community and discover the freedom of being themselves.
Read the full cover story at menshealth.com.au.

@staceymcewanbooks and @lukebateman_ clearly have very different feelings about the editing process...
But we love that for both of them.

Do any other writers out there relate? Or feel as much joy for editing? 👇

We’re almost halfway through Movember, so it’s the perfect time to revisit @lukebateman_’s cover story.
The Movember ambassador has rebuilt his life around a passion he spent years hiding. Now, with hundreds of thousands of followers and a fantasy series of his own on the way, he’s helping other men embrace vulnerability, find community and discover the freedom of being themselves.
Luke wears @politixmenswear throughout.

Do you dislike the choices @staceymcewanbooks 's characters make?
She does too. But that's what makes them so fun to write (and hopefully to read too!)

Should we embrace and enjoy 'unpalatable' FMCs more? 👇
