Writing
In 1991, Shaw collaborated with the New York artist Mark Beard to produce a limited edition publication titled Aiden. The book included several portraits of Shaw, with text written by both Beard and Shaw as a form of dialogue.[2]
Shaw published his first novel, Brutal, in 1996. Also in 1996, The Bad Press published a collection of his poems, If Language at the Same Time Shapes and Distorts our Ideas and Emotions, How do we Communicate Love?[13] He wrote two more novels: Boundaries (1997) and Wasted (2001), and an autobiography, My Undoing (2006) in which he discusses his life in the sex industry as a porn star and sex worker, his drug use, and his HIV status (Shaw was diagnosed HIV positive in 1997).[14][15]
