Watch: Alana S Portero Performs A Reading From Her Novel, Bad Habit

In a Service95 exclusive, Alana S Portero, author of Dua’s Monthly Read for September, performs a reading from her novel, Bad Habit.

In the extract, the narrator has just suffered a vicious transphobic attack, which happens just as she is beginning to flourish within a new-found community that is giving her the confidence to be her true self. The attack sends her into a dark and insular place, from which it takes her years to emerge.
