Author told his book 'The Madonna of Bolton' is 'too gay' to publish, turns to crowdfunding
Being told your novel about growing up gay in the 1980s is "too gay" isn't particularly constructive criticism.

The book takes inspiration from his own life, as he is a huge fan of Madonna and loved her music when he was growing up.
