@ryanhoulihan I get that. I think part of the difficulty in making those lists is that many trans writers don't want to be pigeonholed. It can be bad for one's career or self-esteem. So while they're not in the closet, they don't put that info in the press releases, where those bloggers would be looking. I'll list a few authors I can think of off the top of my head

My friend Aran and her late wife wrote a cool sci-fi series, Sol: Legacy. She also makes awesome music aranmaybe.bandcamp.com/album/c

@ryanhoulihan I haven't read this yet but I plan on attending the book signing, but a trans man local to me (Salem Lynn Thornton) wrote a gothic young adult trilogy, with the first installment out now, Something so Lovely.

A few that might be on those lists because them being trans is mentioned in the books' about sections. Might not be your cup of tea though:
- Happy As Pirates by Jemma Topaz
- Sundered Moon by Fae'Rynn

@ryanhoulihan okay I wrote a check I can't cash by committing to 3 whole toots so I'll just use something that I, a trans, wrote as filler for the last one:

It's a short story expressing my anger about sanitized history. It's about how past atrocities can distort one's sense of reality. Fun!

Or as a printable zine:

(I also snail mail these for free)

I'm working on a second short story right now using dragons as a trans metaphor.
