Bio
A trans-masc voice that holds no bars whether it's through my fiction or through my real life while growing up trans, and how representation allows for more people to understand themselves.

Teen Trans
When you are so young, you never fully understand the gravity of what you are saying out loud. The words “I want to be a zebra” sound innocent enough, but even from there I remember not truly feeling like myself. The only Zebras I knew about were Marty from Madagascar and Stripes from Racing Stripes. Ironically, both of which are boys. I look back at it with everything I know now, and I realise this was how I first ever voiced my dissatisfaction with my assigned gender. And the reaction I got was enough to make me never say something like that again in my family.
