I write essays & books; draw comics, do theater photography, design and care for many web sites, listen to J-pop, read manga, watch anime, know French and am learning Japanese; I'm 50-plus years young. A Queer Turn of Events, my third Queer Circle novel, is my webcomic on WizzyWig.net. |

Fragments of Gender (2005) is a collection of my essays and short fiction, mostly from the first ten 'activist' years following my [ change | transition ] of [ sex | gender ].
My young adult novel, Fool for Love, has genderqueer and intersex teens as main characters. Carys and Jami meet at a high school arts camp and are immediately attracted to each other. What that means, and what they are to do about it, takes some time and a lot of emotional energy to figure out, because they don't have traditional gender roles and bodies to fall back on. The title comes from the fact that Carys is literally a clown (Lovelorn the Clown), and so much in love with Jami that she'll go through what it takes for Jami to open up and talk about herself. (More in the FAQ.)
A Queer Circle of Friends is a sequel to A Fool for Love that sees Carys and Jami start a support group and a genderqueer performance troupe/band. They also become mixed up in some scary business, and fall in love with a tranny named Tam.
| WizzyWig.net opened with my illustration of young Tam for the 2006 Trans Day of Remembrance webcomic project. On WizzyWig.net I experiment with telling the story of my third Queer Circle novel, A Queer Turn of Events, in online form, with more or less weekly updates. |

My print books are available from Amazon.com and other major online book sellers. More of the sale price goes to me if you purchase directly from my Lulu.com store; my books are available only on Lulu.com as inexpensive PDF downloads. (Second price shown at the left.) There is no cover if you download, so here are some wallpapers.
The cover art for the novels is by Jade Gordon, creator of the Lean on Me web comic. All photos and other art on these pages is mine. Click on any book cover here to see detailed information about the book. You'll find an announcement and a longer blurb about Fool for Love on the ISNA website.

I support artists and their production companies! Though I may hop on YouTube to check out an anime or a band, I buy legal copies of every anime I watch, every manga I read, and all music to which I listen. If it isn't available in the USA, I buy import versions or I buy direct from France, Japan, Hong Kong or Korea. Do the right thing! (If you don't know at least one additional language, well, get working on it!)
