Good evening! I just switched instances, so I guess a brief hello is in order. I'm Terryble, #ftm guy from Poland living in Austria, trying to deal with my recently realized disability and an awful job. I'm into #writing, #books especially #fantasy and #sf, #sailing and #socialJustice. And probably several other things when I'm not that tired. Also #dogs, meet Baton too

The book focuses on a hopeful and optimistic future, and contains an adults reference guide at the back.

The book focuses on all the different forms trans joy can take, and attempts to offer a variety of perspectives.

My next upcoming book is Who Hunts the Whale, a satirical novel set in a AAA video game development studio.

The book, which I co-authored with my wife @janeiac , aims to be funny, sweet, and unflinching in its critique of exploitative game development practices.
