Hello! I'm Claire, a writer and poet living in Los Angeles, and this is L.A. Jayne - a girly repository for all of my thoughts. I write about sex and queerness in life, art, and culture, and also about navigating women's health (with chronic pain) in the hellscape that is the U.S. health care system.
