On a personal note, yesterday was really special to me for another reason. I felt like a full woman, confident and open. In a way, it was public a coming out after transition (which was no small feat!) Just gives me warm fuzzies thinking about it.

It definitely aims high and I think that's what makes this such an amazing book. There's no easy answers here because its all of this and more.

It's also desperate and personal. It's sweaty and lusty. It's a story about survival, told in a way that should (hopefully!) pull you in and take you on a journey. It aims high, and I love it for that reason. If you're curious, there are sample chapters available here: prismata-press.itch.io/mara

I also desperately wanted to have a go at writing something in a more classic style of sci-fi, while also having the energy of modern trans and lesbian work. It ended up becoming quite an ambitious project, folding in years of study into bits of the narrative. That's not to say it's dry, far from..

related issues. Because of the judging, I was getting exposed to some really powerful writing. Folks who could create a really deep mood, unsettling scenes, and characters that stuck with you. There were a few authors doing similar in trans fiction, but not many. And oh did I ache to have a go...

Woke up thinking about Mara this morning. You see, when I wrote Machines of Consent, I was reading a *lot* of lesbian romance. And, you can tell, I think 😅. The romance part is an important part of that book. With Mara, I was writing it coming off of judging for SFINCS and dealing with health...

An excellent choice (with excellent position titles)

(* in case anyone was curious, the changes they made turned it into a spy movie instead(??) complete with knockout syringes. Ahh Hollywood)

Dreamed this morning I went to go see the Magica Riot movie. All the big actors, though like Hollywood does sometimes, they took some liberties with the plot 😅 * Still, it felt like trans art had reached some kind of inflection point in popular media. cc @magicariot.com

“She pulled at them from deep within, like a songbird singing for her mate. An ocean invisible to human eyes sang back to her, its waves and pulses a vibration on the solar winds.” (And I’m sure there’s a Gwenoth banger of a line I’m forgetting too)

Does it still having issues after a reboot? Could be a loose connection to the screen. Fingers crossed it's an easy fix for a local techie person.

Did I mention Mara has toxic lesbians? Mara has toxic lesbians.

Highlighted lines:

"Her teeth found the neck of the beast; she bit for all the strength she had. Skin and muscle yielded to her jaws and the beast howled in ecstasy. It wanted this. Not just a fight, but a dance. A waltz of mutual destruction."

lines that follow: "To punctuate its need, the beast bit back as it raked along the nun’s shoulder, spreading cloth and skin alike. The nun could only moan into the flesh of the beast as she refused to let go."

Keep squeezing all the juice out of it they can until nothing else comes out? (also it *does* make me wonder a bit. If vanilla was that good that they want to keep revisiting it surely though could use similar design sensibilities and do something new?)
