The Untragic Trans* Panel from WisCon 37! Moderated by Rhea Ewing, with Autumn Nicole Bradley, Rose Hayes, Brit Mandelo, and Elliott Mason. The panel runs an hour and fifteen minutes, and then I give a little Readercon report after it's over.

Things the panelists recommended:

We Happy Trans is a website specifically for sharing positive trans experiences. What Makes a Baby is a book that talks about how babies are made in very inclusive terms for all kinds of families. Choir Boy by Charlie Anders is a novel about a trans teen. Gender Outlaws: The Next Generation by Kate Bornstein and S. Bear Bergman is a book about exploring gender in multiple ways. Being Emily by Rachel Gold is another trans teen novel, and one which Autumn recommends as really speaking to her experience. FINE is Rhea's comic about gender.

Readercon was great! Big thanks to he concom for working hard to make the space as safe and inclusive as possible. I loved getting to catch up with so many OA members, though I utterly failed to get a lot pictures. I do have two, though! Both from the From Page to Stage workshop run by C.S.E. Cooney and Caitlyn Paxson. At the end, all the participants read from their work, and I caught Kyell Gold and Brad Parks in the act!

Here's Kyell:

Thanks to everyone who made Readercon weekend great!
