Hey everyone! If you're looking for a FREE read today, check out my poetry chapbook, Heirloom Seeds!

If you like the book, please consider reviewing! It really helps me as a trans/disabled indie author!

What does it mean to love where you're at – especially when "where you're at" feels like staring down a dead end sign?

Ainslie McNeil learns, through crises of the identity and mental health varieties, that "she" isn't who everyone thought.

If you're reading this, can you please send good luck dust? It's #SmallBusinessSaturday and I'm releasing the book cover and blurb for my first novella in half an hour.
I'm super nervous.

A stylized digital drawing of Peggy's Cove lighthouse. It is decked with red and green Christmas lights. There is snow flecked on the black rocks and a moon and the silhouette of Santa's sleigh in the sky.

i’m an album girly
playlists are cool
but listening to an entire album in order, the way the artist intended? that’s where it’s at for me personally

I'm learning to draw and it's hard.

A mint green background with a cutesy handwriting font that reads "I'd rather see your "bad" art than AI." Bad is in quotations to imply it's not bad. There are doodles scattered around the text, including a bunny face, a heart, a ball of yarn, a Saturn and stars, a flower, smiley sun, cherries, and an envelope with a heart sticker.

I stopped drawing. For years. I was bullied pretty relentlessly, online and by peers, for my drawings. Today I picked up a stylus and opened ProCreate, made a self portrait doodle...

#Art #Artist #Doodle #Drawing #DigitalDrawing #SelfPortrait

A digital drawing of Tea, a white nonbinary person. They have glasses, hazel eyes, and blushy nose and cheeks, and shoulder length dark brown hair. They are wearing a yellow sweater, blue jeans, and pale yellow sneakers with cherry pink flecks. They are standing on a grassy hill with a blue sky with clouds.

Trans people have always existed. And we're not going anywhere.

Not #art that's good enough for my IG, so hoping someone will still appreciate it here?

Hey all. It's Trans Day of Remembrance. If you're a trans/non-binary person reading this, just know I want to know that I want to know your story, your joy, while you're still here. I want you to be here. Thank you x
