Trans rights?

With every fiber of my existence - YES!

JKR statements on that topic have been wrong and hurtful for the whole community. If you care to hear a doctoral researcher in the field of transgender well-being and development, picking apart her essay objectively and with reliable sources, consider watching this video:

Do you ever wonder how any of this is real?

You’ve come to a point where you just accept the unnaturalness of your life. Your feelings seem muted and you’re just numb to everything thrown at you. You know it isn’t normal to feel this way but at the same time there’s a sense of relief because you don’t need to try anymore. You’ve come to a point where you take everything in stride. You’re calm, you’re cool, you’re collected. You’re making sarcastic comments.

But at the same time, you still ask yourself, “How is this my life?”

Writing is not always writing.

Writing is being on the train and mentally seeing your OCs stumble into other people, or flinching away from the germ-ridden handrails, or sleeping on each others’ shoulders.

Writing is hearing a song on the radio and watching one of your scenes play out to the lyrics.

Writing is laying on your floor or sitting by your computer and spending hours collaging newspaper clippings or pictures or people or plants together and making something that is completely, uniquely, your story.

Writing is drawing your characters in your notebooks, and making tea only your one, picky character would drink, and writing an open letter to all your characters just to remind them you love them.

Writing is moodboards, and playlists, and crafts, and asks, and prompts, and pictures, and memories, and you.

So never think that just because you’re not putting words on a page, you’re not a real writer. Writing is something that follows you everywhere, beyond the word document, and beyond the screen.

Because writing isn’t something you do. It’s something you are.
