So as a trans ace person who writes about a trans ace (space) wizard, can I be JKR’s arch nemesis?
New books I am so excited. I don't know where to start. The King's Weaver by @novaecaelum.bsky.social & Go Luck Yourself by @sararaaschbooks.com 🌈 💚

Working on a new thing tonight, something I haven't really talked about before, a novella about trans angels fighting and loving and saving each other against a long cosmic war. Rereading my first draft right now and feeling this in my soul. (It'll be out when it's out, this one's therapy ❤️)
My bi king x genderfluid princess fantasy romance The King’s Weaver went viral 4 times in a few weeks and sold out 5, I just rush ordered for more, I’m shuffling schedules to get the sequel out asap because I haven’t cover revealed and have orders THANK YOU YOU’RE MAKING THIS GENDERFLUID AUTHOR CRY
I just passed 750,000 words written so far in The Stars and Green Magics series (halfway into Book 8). That’s 750,000 words of genderfluid kings ruling kingdoms and sapphic rival princesses and trans man space mages.✨I started serializing this in 2021 as I wrote it. Hi 2021 me, thank you. ❤️
And by dismantled I mean, question everything. Why is our gendered and binary western society the way it is when humans and nature have never been binary? Why does that seem normal and natural to so many of us? What is actually going on in lived humanity, and going on in systems of oppression?
I had another comment that if the patriarchy didn’t exist, we’d be a matriarchy and better for it.
But that’s swapping one imperfect system for another. Any system that puts any gender above others and excludes those outside the binary is still only good for one group.
It all must be dismantled.
