Ten Essential Short Stories by Trans Authors #Pride2023
Rad reading recommendations from Nic Anstett at Tor.com!
The first story I ever let myself write about gender was about a shape-shifting super spy. It was the summer of 2018 during my third week at the Clarion Science Fiction and Fantasy Workshop. I’d come out to my cohort as a trans woman at the end of the first week. I’d warn a dress to workshop in week two. Finally allowing myself to write about gender felt like the next logical step. This was all very new. I’d only just accepted my womanhood a few months prior and hardly anyone besides my partner knew the truth about my gender. Coming out and making art about transness with a group of people who were still essentially strangers might have felt daunting, but there was something about the environment at Clarion that made me feel this shift was safe and welcome. It wasn’t just the fact that I was in a cohort of people I trusted, including other queer writers, but the reality-bending work I was reading every day in my sparse UCSD dorm room.
