I just had a great authenticity read on my new TV pilot (two gay male leads) from Drew at Pride Reads! Insightful, practical & smart notes. If you need some expertise, he's the man you need.

His Pride Reads newsletter on writing queer characters is great too, and free to sign up for!
Maybe a (re) intro is a good idea

Ten years ago nobody in their right mind gave a single crap where trans people went to the toilet and the only reason anyone does now is because they were radicalised by Facebook and a handful of insane newspaper columnists and that’s just embarrassing all round

Now sir you tell me the world’s changed
Once I made you rich enough
Rich enough to forget my name
