Thoughts on being a fem agender: And never feeling queer enough.
No matter how I look, I do not belong to any gendered category. I am just being me.

I’m not a woman nor am I a man / Nor any gender known under the sun.
The Skirt
If you could only alter you as in a game, stretching cheekbones and thinning legs to mannish ones, pulling out little hairs along your chin — if only it were cheap.

It is the ace coming-of-age story we need, and the one we deserve, and hopefully it will help pave the way for many more novels like it.
Pride Balloons
Modern society has made progress towards acceptance of LGBTQIA individuals, but asexuality remains under the radar.
“Ace and Awesome”
At one time I would've given almost anything to be a late bloomer and not asexual. I wanted so badly to fit in that I would have given up this beautiful part of me in a second.
