I'm in the final stretch before major trans gender-affirming surgery, and any book sales will be so helpful in being able to afford this all! Direct sales through TF Publishing are best, but anything will be so beneficial. Please consider purchasing, signing up to Patreon, or sharing this thread.

They say that blood is thicker than water, but they also say you can’t choose your family. These twelve authors have something to say about both. Grab "Tales from the Guild: Blood and Water" from the @furrywritersguild.bsky.social at fenrispublishing.com/product.php?...

First new words written today in a few weeks. Slowly going to be getting back into the swing of things, especially when I'm back home on the weekend.

Thanks for the interest in, boosts & purchases of this trans books bundle! (I've had to increase the goal multiple times 😄).

These books, some also including queer normative and or LGBTQIA+ joy, are available as this set for 4 more days.

I'd like to kick off Trans Awareness Month with 32 stories of Trans People Taking On The World, by mainly trans authors

Your heroes may tackle; love, friendship, magic &war, self discovery, trauma & healing, demons (literal or metaphorical 😉) & or the world itself!

Today really is a Four Seasons in One Day kind of day. Really obvious that song was written about Melbourne after being here for a few days.

I'm very much looking forward to getting back home on the weekend, mainly so I can have a comfortable bed again. Still haven't had an uninterrupted night of sleep since surgery.

Still a few days left to get this incredible bundle of 32 books of trans fiction by trans authors. You'll be helping a lot of authors and getting some very good books by supporting this bundle, including my trans dragon tale, Dragon's Soul.

After several weeks without them, it feels wonderful to be allowed to have my hormones again!

Discharged from hospital and back into the apartment we've rented for a couple of weeks. So grateful to all the nurses at the hospital - now it's time for the recovery period without them!

I am definitely using my experience this week to put into some future characters. Trans euphoria is an incredible feeling.

Reminder!!

Bluesky has a pronoun labeler you should really use!

Only those who subscribe to this will see it so you should do that. Don't worry, that's all it does.
Instructions are in the bio/first post.

Made a lot of progress today, including having most of the dressings and bandages removed.

Lots more tears shed.

Still expected to be discharged from hospital tomorrow.

I can't put it into words just how positive this has been already. I feel complete.

I'm sure time passes at different rates in hospital. Feels like I've been here way longer than 48 hours.

This bundle is 2/3rds of the way to its goal! Please consider picking it up - 32 trans novels including mine!

I've been able to stand up and walk a few steps around my room! Surgeon said everything went "perfect" and it all seems to be recovering well already, even after less than 24 hours.
November 4, 2025 at 2:27 AM
I've had too many replies to respond to all of you, but your well wishes and congratulations are much appreciated! Thank you all so much for your support - I've had a few cries from it this morning. And just looking at that photo again.

That's a girl who achieved what felt impossible for so long.

I feel amazing. Cried several times already out of happiness and relief. Will likely do so a few more times (many more times).

I can't really put into words how good this makes me feel. This is right up there with getting married as the best day of my life.
November 3, 2025 at 8:58 AM
Out of surgery. Had a few cries. Feel amazing.
November 3, 2025 at 6:31 AM
I go into surgery in about an hour. Give me a number to smile about when I wake up!

Go buy trans books! They're helping a whole bunch of trans authors.

Nearly ten months of waiting and all the endless time hoping and dreaming before then - but today is the day.

Going into surgery soon.

People deserve art, and they shouldn't have to decide between art and eating.

Because I can afford to, I'll be making the entire Zyearth Chronicles ebook bibliography FREE until SNAP benefits are restored. Physical books to follow!

Last 24 hours or so to get in your print books if you want them processed before mid-November!

Ebooks will be accessible as an immediate download as usual.

Every purchase is helping a trans-run business aiming to shine a spotlight on trans & cis female authors!

Would been keen to get the Shiz University uniform from the movie if possible. Love those flowy half skirts they all wear.
