In pre-Millennial London Heavenly Angel, the alter-ego of disillusioned Yvonne-Leigh, worships at the alter and ego of DJ Starkey Moran.
Jaqi Loye-Brown’s debut four-part series DJ Whore is set in London in the late 1990s, a modern period piece when the mobile phone was not so smart…and fax machines still existed.
An era on the cusp of a digital revolution as women tried to take charge of their own destiny and the introduction to a 'party lifestyle'.
Jaqi tiptoes readers through a London clubscene rarely explored in a chick-lit. Contrary to popular belief, not everyone was taking ecstasy and raving.
Look out for parts 2, 3 and 4 of DJ Whore, coming soon, and other derivative tales in the Portobello Novella series. Go to www.MT-Ink.co.uk for more details.
* Jaqi Loye-Brown lives in west London, five minutes from Portobello Road and its vintage markets and eclectic demographic, an endless source of inspiration.
She describes herself as a megalomaniac, home-schooled in guerilla tactic creativity - incorporating music, spoken word and writing, all things digital marketing, arts & crafts and interior design.
With the Notting Hill area now rapidly losing its boho charm, Jaqi, through her Portobello Novella series, reminisces on a bygone generation.
