A reminder that when Becky needed to help a co-worker get into English classes that were actually affordable to lower income immigrants, it was the library that facilitated that.
Libraries do so much more than you think they do. They are essential community builders.

This is not a long-term solution.

Only a fraction of a fraction of trans writers manage to make minimum wage, forget a living wage.
If you want trans literature to exist and you have the means, support trans authors.
If you want trans literature to exist and you have the means, support trans authors.
Subscribe or donate to sources you support, especially indies. Pay a writer directly if you can.
Part of the reason many of us are navigating survival wages is because writing is often undervalued as "easy," simple as writing emails, that should be cheap to free.
Value writing? Then pay for it.

For indie and small press authors, logging your books and reviewing them - even if you don't have much to say or your rating for them was mid or terrible - is invaluable because it makes the books visible to other readers and brings them up through the algorithms on rating sites
