The Metamorphosis

Franz Kafka
The Author Formerly Known as Mette Ivie HarrisonThe Author Formerly Known as Mette Ivie Harrison

Sent a friend a copy of my feminist retelling of Kafka's The Metamorphosis, when a teenage girl wakes up 8 months pregnant and everyone around her just blames her, as if this wasn't a strange thing, but perfectly normal. I still like that story. Maybe I'll be a writer again.

Eric Garcia
The Author Formerly Known as Mette Ivie HarrisonThe Author Formerly Known as Mette Ivie Harrison

I've been reading We're Not Broken by Eric Garcia this week and just finished a section about gender and autism. Once more, I feel like shouting--understanding autism is THE ONLY WAY to understand gender. We autists teach you neurotypical people about yourselves and your world.
