In honor of Trans Day of Visibility, here’s something really cool for you to know…

A computer scientist trans woman by the name of Sophie Mary Wilson was a co-creator of the ARM architecture.

More about Sophie:

Great video on the history of ARM, which is computer science geeky stuff (sorry about YT):

#WritersCoffeeClub #Writing 31 Happy International #TransgenderDayOfVisibility! What trans author has inspired you the most?

It's hard to single out one "most."
Leslie Feinberg has to go in there. In SFF I'd start with Charlie Jane Anders, J. S. Fields, and Alex Wells. In graphic novels, Blue Delliquanti.

Arrgh. Now I'm worrying because I know several are nonbinary but don't know if they identify as *trans* nonbinary.

But they're all greats worth sharing so I'm posting past the anxiety.

Tree Dreams (木の夢)

By Nara Moore (Trans Author - Trans characters)
Art Mai-sensei

The sky sang of azure depths and glittering stars, the trees intoned mantras to the sun and the Buddha, and the earth crooned a lullaby, saying, “It’s winter, time to sleep.”

Dreams of love, loss, and terror. 愛情と損と恐怖の夢

Join Ume & her family as their relationships develop. In a creepy world where “love” never dies

For this year's Trans Day of Visibility, Syracuse Bears would like your help with getting the Syracuse Common Council to declare Syracuse a Trans Safe Haven! 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈🐻🗣️📣 HERE'S HOW YOU CAN HELP!
Sign the petition, register your organization, check out community resources, and learn about the draft legislation to be presented to the council at:

Spotted this empty wheelchair at Saturday's Trans Rights Rally at Independence Mall. Whether intentional or not, it's a pretty powerful statement.

If you believe in the First Amendment right to Freedom of Expression, you will stand up and fight for the right of our trans and nonbinary siblings to express themselves freely without fear of persecution or worse - death.

If you call yourself an ally to the trans community, it is important for you to stand up and fight for the right of our most vulnerable siblings to exist.

The time is now!

Sending love to all my Trans family and friends on this Transgender Day of Visibility ...and every other day of the year. Whether you're out yet or not, you are loved. 🫂

💙💗🤍💗💙

I am not sure I am interrupting your post correctly. But one highlights trans authors for the same reason you highlight any other group that has been discriminated against, systematically silenced, and locked out of the publishing industry. The same reason you support POC authors, women authors, ASD authors, etc.

It is not necessarily because they write about being that minority; it is because they are routinely silenced. Whatever they write in someway reflects their life experience as a marginalized individual.

I fit none of the criteria you mention, yet my characters reflect the realities of being trans, lesbian, and/or asexual. Undoubtedly, it also reflects life as ASD without my being aware of it.
