Support trans authors by buying AND READING our books. Financial support is absolutely good and necessary, but we write first and foremost to tell our stories. Our stories need to be told, and, frankly, you need to hear them.

the thing about “trans women are women” is that if you truly believe that — and you should — then you will become horrified beyond measure at what we as a society are willing to put young girls through, just because they are trans
it’s not just a statement of fact; it’s a recognition of brutality

I like this advice! I'm not going back to the constant obsession over the latest tweet and outrage cycles. I'll be focused on harmful policies & taking actions against those policies with a focus on hope.
And I'll always support artists!

Also: If you don't have money to buy my (or anyone's) books, and you live in the anglosphere, before you pirate them, try to get them from your local library instead. They have it or can get it, they pay for the books, and in many places writers get paid for their books being lent. Everyone wins!
