One of the weird things that happens when you're a trans writer is, from time to time, you go back and read your older work and see who you'd eventually become oozing out through every last goddamned crack.

Not what I expected for tonight. But far from unwelcome.

@Impossible_PhD I have a pile of old journals where I wrote my old poetry. As I’ve been revisiting poetry, I keep eying them in the corner…I’m deeply curious of what I will find in there

Somebody's gotta say it...

"there were no signs".

(And let's face it: pre-transition writing is hella signs.)

@NicolaElle @Impossible_PhD I most definitely didn’t write a very short story when I was 10 where I got accidentally turned into a girl…nope…definitely didn’t hide it from my mom…nope, nothing to see here…

@JoscelynTransient @NicolaElle @Impossible_PhD I can think of a couple of stories I wrote as a teenager where characters get turned into girls. Normally it wasn’t even the central plot of the story, it just happened at some point half way through.
