Trans woman writing a fantasy novel. The novel includes lesbian giant spider sex.

The problem is once you transition and still aren't happy, you have to accept that the actual problem keeping you from happiness is.... that you're fucking broke.
I almost can't believe they actually just gave up with nothing. Like, I thought they would cave, but not for litterally nothing.

The book I'm writing exists in a society where everything is even more pointlessly gendered than our own, so I wanted to make up a title for a woman doctor, as a commentary. Then I found out "doctress" is a real word and I hate everything.

This is my ✨ worst ✨ month of book sales in over a year. Boo hiss. So! To avoid being sad and moaning, I want to help out others also struggling to get notice on their books/art. If you are also having a bad sales month, drop your links below! 📚💙

I love Fire Emblem so much. Nothing could stop me from playing the new game! Oh... right, my bank account.

this sort of irony that occurs where the "anime femboy" archetype is a legibility lens on youth transfemininity filtered by heterosexual consumption (the -boy as much as in tomboy; subsumption to feminization), but feminine men are in fact prolific they're just in like, shoujosei, yaoi, danmei, etc.

Anyway, buy trans books.
On that note:

Trans authors (I mean authors who are trans, NOT cis people who write about trans people), drop your book links here and I'll try to repost as many as I can throughout the day.

Cis people: Repost trans authors' book links.

Cis people who want to complain about being excluded: gtfo
Being a trans author is fucking weird right now. Hell is actively unfolding all around us but I still need to be like, "hey, everyone, wanna buy my silly little queer book? It won't make anything better, but it's kinda fun?"

So....hey, everyone, wanna buy my silly little queer book?

AI student writing is such a pain to deal with. Half my class writes in the same AI voice, then denies it when I call them out on it. I don't do this job to be the AI police, and I know it's a symptom of the degradation of education in general rather than the cause, but it's still so frustrating.

Kamala Harris saying "the system is broken" as if she isn't a fucking symbol of the broken system. It's like if cookie monster claimed too many people are stealing cookies.

I haven't done a new update yet but we're probably going to need more help with this. Here's hoping I can function better in the coming weeks because we are running out of money and I'm not working fast enough to make up for it.

One of the most disheartening things about trans advocacy is how little the people who claim to be on our side actually listen to us.

"trans-identifying", "biological sex", and a variety of other GC dogwhistles have become common parlance because people listen to our enemies, but not us.
Whole ass nation states are attempting to confine trans people to the home—preventing us from using the toilet, playing sports or accessing medical care without exposure to violence—on the basis that “changing your sex is impossible” so if you’re saying that to trans people too, meet your allies.

Is it normal for an asexual writer to be straight up bad at writing sex scenes? Or is it just a me thing?

Cis folks, check on your trans friends right now. I don't ever think I've seen this many friends in crisis. It's beyond anything I ever imagined. We're not ok.

Started drafting a new novel. Saying nothing about it yet except that I really think this is a good one.

Started progesterone yesterday. Yeah guys, it does what you expect it to do. Now if you'll excuse me, I need to find some batteries.

Started rereading "All Over Creation" by Ruth Ozeki to teach it this semester. I definitely didn't appreciate it as much as I should have the first time I read it.

But how do you think Pokemon Emerald rom hacks will look on the 5090?

I don't know why it makes me sad to see Emilia Perez winning awards. Like I knew it was going to happen and was ready to laugh about it, but instead I just feel kinda hopeless.

Now that my thesis is finally done with, I have 3 short stories I want to refine and hopefully find homes for in a lit mag somewhere.

I've also started working on a long term project that may be a Fire Emblem inspired video game. Working on my writing and coding will make this a busy year!
Alright #WIPSnips community...

As 2025 is only a couple of days away, I'm curious, what are your writing goals for 2025?

I'd love to hear! And wonder if WIPSnips and the community can help support those goals in some way.

My endo is insisting that my estrogen is a controlled substance and needs to be approved directly by my doctor who is out of town, and that no one else in the office can approve the renewal of the prescription. I'm very frustrated right now.

Got hit with some transphobia bullshit in public today. Why are people such assholes?
