The Trans Guide to Mental Health and Well-Being was officially released on the 21st of April, and it’s been an adventure every day since!
In the few weeks that the book has been in readers’ hands, I’ve had so much feedback that the book is helpful, friendly, insightful, and accessible, which has been music to my ears. I wanted to create a self-help book that was like a warm and knowledgeable therapist that you could access whenever you needed to, and that was written for trans people by a trans therapist, so to know that I’ve hit the mark has been lovely. I’m so glad that the book has already been able to help people in just a few weeks.

To celebrate the launch, I teamed up with BookWyrm book shop in Durham to throw a party.
As part of the book launch party, the lovely Miles and Chris from BookWyrm made some of my words in to zines to giveaway with each copy of The Trans Guide to Mental Health and Well-Being, as well as bookmarks for each guest to take away. I’ve been meaning to make a zine for ages, so this was something cute to tick off my bucket list.

I’ve also signed about thirty books over the last fortnight, if not more, to go to friends, family, good causes like Books Beyond Bars, to buy from the BookWyrm shop, and at the party for each guest. I’ve loved customising them to what each person wants as much as I can.


My lovely fiancée also knocked it out of the park with this giant book-shaped cake, which was an absolute dream come true. It was a chocolate orange cake and immensely heavy!


The launch event was rounded off my a book reading. I’ve done this before, but this was the first time the reading was streamed on Instagram, so it was another first for me. I’m hoping to do more readings at other bookshops in the coming weeks, so keep your eyes and ears peeled!

Over the next few months there are more things planned around The Trans Guide to Mental Health and Well-Being, including interviews and giveaways. Thank you so much for your support, and I hope you love the book!
