I'm now nine months in to writing the trans and non-binary guide to good mental health! I signed my contract in early November 2019 and started writing in earnest in January 2020, after taking time to wrap my head around what I had to do (plus celebrate the holidays).

Review – They/Them/Their: A Guide to Nonbinary and Genderqueer Identities, by Eris Young
I've been looking for a great non-fiction book about non-binary lives for a while, so I was delighted to find They/Them/Their, a factual exploration of what it means to live life outside of the gender binary.

Book Updates, NaNoWriMo, and Probable Chapter Outlines
So I failed NaNoWriMo (again). I didn’t make it anywhere near the 50,000 words needed to ‘win’, but I don’t feel like I lost. Over November I’ve managed to write the book’s introduction chapters, and to further solidify what the other chapters will include. Here are the chapters I’ll be working on for the next … Continue reading Book Updates, NaNoWriMo, and Probable Chapter Outlines
