Boy, can it be expensive to be transgender. The medications can be costly (I’m lucky with medications and the insurance I’m part of), the doctors can be expensive (again, lucky on the insurance), and there are a lot of things to worry about. But one of the more depressing things is clothing and shoes.
Let me talk about it some more.
It’s been a while, but I’ve been doing some writing in the background. Let’s get down to business!

Hi there! It’s been a bit.
Firstly, I have a new link page at Books 2 Go, that links to the book in all the stores it’s sold in one easy-to-click page. You can look there if you want to know where it can be found.
I decided to make some merch with a pair of images inspired by The Ballad of the Grey Swan and a good old-fashioned LGBTQIA+ slogan!
All are available through RedBubble.
Ah, The Prince of Fireflies.
He is also known as the Great Voyeur, the Watcher Over Lovers, and the Bleeder of Hearts.
The Faerie of Taeliana are incarnate stories, and the Archfey are the incarnations of the most powerful themes in stories. The Prince of Fireflies is love stories, no matter how they end. As an archfey, he does things for his amusement and to further the stories he embodies. (There is a difference between the fae and the faerie, which will be gone over later.)

A name change is important – you want to be yourself, and when you’re transgender, your name is a big, big part of it. This got brought up in a comment on my last post, so I thought I’d go into a bit of detail about the costs for a name change here where I live in the state of Pennsylvania.
Today, I got a message from my wife asking me if I would like to meet up with her for lunch. I hadn’t seen her workplace, so I figured, sure! I decided to step up and embrace my transgender self for this trip.
I’m a little late on the Trans Day of Visibility, since it was March 31, and it’s now a week later. But I just recently got some very awesome information to show.
I am a proud scion of the state of New Jersey, and on the Transgender Day of Visibility, the governor of the state, the inestimable Phillip Murphy, declared it in an executive order as a sanctuary state. This means that if you prescribe trans health care, then move to NJ, or you’ve moved to NJ from a transgender-hostile state that bans trans health care, they won’t lift a finger to help you get extradited.
In addition, about the same time, the state opened a site at https://transgender.nj.gov/ to give a central point for transgender people to get information on the laws, processes, and resources in New Jersey they can access.
This is incredibly good news, and there’s the possibility of crossing the river again. So we will see…
And now, a bit of music that may be a little relevant.
So it seems like everyone in the universe who plays D&D, and a lot who don’t, have been chiming in about the Open Gaming License (OGL) issue.
This is going to sound funny, but back in the days when I thought I was a straight cis man, my inspiration for Eiko was… clothing.
