An anthology exploring the intersection of transness and disability through stories, poems, plays, drawings, and personal essays. The pieces within these pages explore plurality, chronic illness, fatness, wounds and scares, euphoria and transformation - and what it means to exist in liminal spaces.
To be trans and disabled means to have experienced harassment, discrimination, loneliness, often poverty, to have struggled with feeling unworthy of love.

To be trans and disabled means experiencing ableism within our trans communities and transphobia within our disabled communities.

To be trans and disabled means to love our fellow trans and disabled people harder than we could ever love ourselves.

This anthology brings together vulnerable stories, poems, plays, drawings, and personal essays. They explore how we make sense of ourselves, our intersections of identities and experiences, of how we are treated, and how much love we are capable of, sometimes even for ourselves.
