Trans* Book History @transbookhistory.bsky.social · 30/08/2025

This morning’s long weekend leisure reading. Would love to know about more trans authors who are self publishing printed zines/chapbooks. Drop your recommendations here. (I stay up on digital self publishing. I’m wanting more material objects.)

A hand holding up a copy of Leo Leventhal’s “30 Sleights for the Modern Transexual” with a blue cover and diagrams of coin sleight-of-hand tricks. Legs and hammock in the background.

Hand holding a pink zine titled “Appalachian Transsexual” (12 poems by Kyrsten) with an image of a vibrator and sickle.

Hand holding a pink zine with the title “missladyma’amwoman” (16 poems by Kyrsten) with the image of a trans woman on the cover.

Hand holding the pamphlet “Eugene” by Jackie Ess with green cover and image of a landscape.

Fantastic acquisitions today. Tip your local pizza boy so he can buy $1 CDs and transgender literature.

CDs of “ESPN presents Jock Jams” volume 1 and 3, a hand bound copy of 30 Sleights for the Modern Transexual by Leo Leventhal, and a black pilot fountain pen in a black plastic case.

Leo wrote a book and I designed and published it. Incredibly proud of her and us and making something with our hands. This one is special.

30 Sleights for the Modern Transsexual, Leo Leventhal's debut collection of linked short stories, is a house of cards collapsing in slow motion. Learn the secrets of coin tricks, riverboat gambling, and killing your past self; everything you need to survive the cutthroat world of trans stage magic.

Pretend you hold a deck of cards. Do not pick up a deck of cards no matter how convenient one may be. Feel the deck of cards in the palm of your dominant hand. Your hand is still, the stack is firm. Pinch either side of the deck with your thumb and forefinger, press harder than comes natural.

In this house we coast on innate ability, and eschew all that doesn’t come to us naturally. If you find yourself thinking “this is hard, I need to practice to improve my ability” you’ve already lost.
