Benedict Speeks
Benedict has never followed a straight line. Raised with an instinct for reinvention and a taste for the offbeat, he’s built a life at the intersection of creative expression and real-world grit. This space exists to showcase his passion for design, found-object art, and the obscure. It reflects a lifelong fascination with the overlooked, the imperfect, and the deeply personal. Now focused on poetry, spoken word, and visual art, Benedict turns personal history shaped by quiet battles, deep love, and necessary endings. He creates at the edge between memory and reinvention, confession for anybody still figuring it out.

We can be us
What if the closest you ever get to belonging is through someone else’s story?
In a sun-bleached beach town full of cheap apartments and almost-memories, Benedict finds himself entangled in the orbit of Paul and Heath—two magnetic misfits who share everything: a home, a past, and a wild kind of freedom that always seems just out of reach.
Drawn in by their chaos and charm, Benedict becomes part of their world—but never quite at its center. Through lazy days, late nights, and one unforgettable party, the cracks begin to show, and Benedict must face what it means to love, to lose, and to build something of your own when you're no longer sure where you fit.
Tender, nostalgic, and quietly devastating, We Can Be Us is a queer coming-of-age novella about friendship, longing, and the bittersweet beauty of almost.

Think of him as your favorite overthinker with a mic and a metaphor. He’s not famous (yet), but he’s got something to say — and silence has never suited him.
