R.I.P. Writer Peter David.

Peter David seemed like a pretty cool guy, one thing I liked about his Star Trek New Frontier novels is that there was one character, Burgoyne 172, who was using what were effectively neopronouns (as a bigender species of alien) and this was back in 1997.

this embodied that progressive science fiction Star Trek was known for, and also normalized..at least for me...the idea of a person using different pronouns than he/him she/her. this was good for my own formation of coming to understand myself years later.
