In this fantastical trans retelling of a medieval tale, Princess Yde flees her incestuous father by disguising herself as a man. Aided by the angel Gabriel, she forges her way across Europe, facing thugs, bandits, and armies in pursuit of an elusive destiny. #DVPit #A #F #LGBT

What makes a man? Nature, nurture … or an angel offering a great destiny? Medieval history and trans identity converge in YDÉ AND OLIVE, a fantastical queer retelling of the medieval story by the same name. #DVPit #A #F #LGBT

I recently reprinted this classic print in fresh colors for the late summer of 2026- you can get a fifth off this and everything else in the Justseeds shop with code LEARN at checkout through the end of the month!
The idea for this image came from the murmuration, the flocking behavior that many birds display. In these great assemblies of flying creatures, each individual is maintaining their own position within the mass by constantly reassessing how far they are from each other, and the function of so many individuals flying together serves to provide some protection from predators. There are lessons in biology to be learned by people organizing for a better world, and this is one of the best.

This is a new signed edition of this print with carefully remixed colors, hand-made by me at Flight 64 Studio in Portland, OR in summer of 2026.

The Kickstarter for our next anthology, Wild and Full of Marvels: Queer Fanworks Inspired by Folklore and Fairy Tales, launched yesterday, and we’re already almost 50% funded and a “Project We Love”! Check out the campaign and see what all the fuss is about: www.kickstarter.com/projects/duc...
A banner with text that reads Wild and Full of Marvels Queer Fanworks Inspired by Folklore and Fairy Tales. Beside this is a book cover of a book with the same title as that text, with artwork showing two women, one a light skinned mermaid adjusting her hair and waving, the other a darker skinned fisherwoman exchanging a flirty look with the mermaid. In the upper right hand corner of the banner is a circular badge that says PROJECT WE LOVE KICKSTARTER, and the Duck Prints Press logo is in the lower left corner.

Happy pub day to Trans/Port!!! 🏳️‍⚧️🤖 My next android story is OUT! The future is full of amazing, clever, beautiful, complicated, strong, and thriving trans people. The future is trans, and it's awesome! Won't you join us there? Grab the ebook for just $4 here: draft2digital.com/book/4305329
Cover of Trans/Port: Trans Speculative Fiction for a Queer Future. Edited by: Michael Fielding. Cover art by: April Autumn. The cover art features a blue and purple color scheme. A content person with their eyes closed is centered in a galactic spiral, their hair flowing around them in a wave. The first page of the short story "Alterious Alignments" by Evangeline Giaconia. The first paragraphs read: 'Mocte did one last check of the cargo pod. Procedure for high-value cargo shipments like this medical equipment demanded three checks. Floor, side, and ceiling clamps: clamped. Temperature control: controlled. Final crate count: seventy out of seventy.
“Mocte?” called Exo from outside. “One minute until the pod
auto-launches. Get in here.”
Mocte slipped out of the pod, hitting the button to close the
doors behind them. “We’re good.”'

#UnhingedPit In YDE AND OLIVE (a retelling of the medieval story), Princess Yde escapes her incestuous father by disguising herself as a man, ultimately becoming a great warrior and king of Rome. Naturally, I had to trace Yde's sartorial journey via paper doll. #Q #A #F #LGBT
"Yde's Journey": A medieval paper doll set made with colored pencil. The central figure is surrounded by four sets of colorful medieval clothes. They are labeled "naive Spanish princess," "Runaway, disguised as man," "Knight in a German army," and "Prince of Rome".

gender, pro-gender, mixed-gender, beyond-gender, without-gender, playful-gender, WTF-gender. We wanted bodies changing and be-
ing changed, bodies that are permeable, bodies that resist, bodies re-
sisted, bodies transcended, bodies that become and are becoming. Minds that are natural, beyond natural, synthetic, beyond synthetic, digital, and unfathomable. We wanted gender queer, gender beauti-
ful, gender sacred, gender outside, gender beyond, gender that makes you go, “Wow” or “Huh?” or “Whoa!” or “Cool” or “Me!!”
