There are plenty worse things you can be in fascist times than the cold unyielding tr*nny in the group chat, is my mantra today

while writing Exhibit, I also kept a process journal, writing notes to myself & maybe to the novel about the attendant thoughts, feelings, terrors, joys, anxieties & now it’s out!, thank you to @bombmag.bsky.social for publishing this 🖤

wrote a two-part essay about feminization + digitization, cyberfeminism, the TESCREAL bundle, and Serial Experiments Lain and The Ginny Suite 💌

Which four of y'all will move my ridiculous novel about online transsexuals who make ZZT games and have intricately messy feelings toward one another to the front of store display sohopress.com/books/a-s-l/

THIS IS A CALL TO ACTION. Censorship affects all of us, and if Project 2025 gets its way, the entire trans publishing industry is at a significant risk of criminalization. In this article, I lay out the problem and the stakes, and suggest a broad action plan with dozens of potential response ✊

Ok! My memoir, DIRTY KITCHEN, is out May 6, 2025 w One Signal/Simon&Schuster. It’s on 22 years undocumented in the US, and what happens to kids like me when we fall through the cracks and survive (spoiler: I get angry and write a book). Pre-order: tinyurl.com/damatac. Read my Author’s Note:

i started looking at applications for the @tinhouse.bsky.social winter workshops today & i'm already so delighted + excited by the stories i've been reading :,) you still have a day to apply!!

some news: I wrote a novel, EXHIBIT, & it will publish in May ‘24! I started working on it in ‘15 & its obsessions include art, sex, ambition, curses, Korean mythologies, & generations-old revenge, also the book is very queer

People are so proud of their relationship to time. I think that’s charming. And very funny. Like, oh good for you, Father Time kisses you on the forehead and tucks you in every night? That’s so cool, man.

My head is still spinning over this one! "The Exorsister," my story about a plague of demonic possessions and messy queer sisterhood, is the feature for the August issue of “One Story!” You know you want to buy a copy of this greenpea-soup-colored beauty!
