What Does Being Transgender Bring To My Writing?
Hello! :)
Today I'd like to discuss the question: "What does being transgender bring to my writing?"
It's a question I was asked recently by someone, and so after a little thought, I'm here to answer it.
It's 2019 now, and it's been 19 years since I started transition and 13 years since I had my final surgeries. As a matter of interest, since I woke up after my "big op" on January 10, 2006, I felt completely natural - and above all, whole and complete! As a result, I sometimes have to stop and think to remember what it was like to have grown up and lived a male life.
