Patrick Bex

Hello! I’m Patrick, an author and activist dedicated to raising awareness about aromantic and asexual identities. My poetry and writing reflect my personal journey and aim to amplify underrepresented voices within the LGBTQIA+ community. Through my work, I strive to foster understanding, inspire hope, and build a stronger sense of connection.

My debut book, Limitless: Poetry of an Aromantic & Asexual Journey, explores themes of identity, resilience, and self-discovery,
