Winner of the 2021 OutWrite Chapbook Competition in Poetry. Selected by Dena Rod. A 5”x5” chapbook. Publishing in December 2021.

"Vividly touching, Good Boi deftly articulates a longing for what's unknown, glistening, and waiting for understanding. Crawford reminds us the body speaks even when we do not want to listen and how the blame projected onto an unruly body is only a reflection of what we fear. Poignant, lyrical and full of longing, Good Boi is an anthem for boys being bois."

—Dena Rod, author of Scattered Arils

“In Good Boi, Jason B. Crawford becomes who they are, ‘no matter how many tries it takes.’ These striking poems are ‘such magnificent creatures.’ They are malleable, dismembered, fractioned, glittering revelations on queerness, on gender, on debt, on love, on boihood. Take time with these poems, they’re safe, sharp, ‘a space to stay in.’”

—Marlena Chertock, author of Crumb-sized: Poems and On that one-way trip to Mars; Co-Chair of OutWrite

“Good Boi is about urgency and stealth, secrecy and loss. It lifts its sleeve and shows us the intimate bruises of growing up and into queerness. A book that uses words like “tits” and “ass” should not be this tender and endearing, but it absolutely is.”

—Lannie Stabile, author of Good Morning to Everyone Except Men Who Name Their Dogs Zeus
