Shopping!

2024, Selfies,

I never go shopping. For no reason today I went to the mall to buy clothes. Apparently I still need to shop in Juniors.

Dillard’s Juniors section

Also while waiting for my Lyft I found a cool flower bush.

Lovely pink flower

Pride Day 30

2024, Selfies,

Pride Day 30: Book Awards! My book on asexuality won the 2015 Next Generation Indie Book Award in the LGBT category and got a silver medal in the 2015 Independent Publisher Book Awards in the Sexuality and Relationships category. (My publisher, Skyhorse, isn’t one of the largest ones, so it still counts as independent.) My book was also a finalist in the 2014 Lambda Awards in LGBT Nonfiction and a finalist in the 2014 INDIEFAB Book of the Year Awards in Family & Relationships.

Pride Day 28: The Answer by Rebecca Sugar. Yep, it’s a KIDS’ book featuring a same-sex couple. While I wouldn’t recommend this necessarily for people who have not watched Steven Universe (you will be heavily spoiled AND you won’t fully get the context), it is a lovely sweet story about two “she” characters falling in love. One of the author’s other related books, The Tale of Steven (also VERY spoilery for the end of the show), has a dedication “to trans and gender-expansive kids” because of its focus on the importance of one’s personal identity and speaking truth to power.
