About me, the author

+

+ Hello, I am a 30s something transgender woman from the north east coast United States. I transitioned at the age of 31 after years of struggling with my gender. I'm sure you'll find out more of that here in my posts. I started this site to try and just make a resource for folks who are questioning their gender or struggling during their own transitions. For some context at the time of starting this site the internet was in a bit of a crossroads. Multiple websites that were places for communities to grow started to struggle as leadership was changing or forcing the direction of the sites in a way that pushes outs its communities. So I wanted to have a place in my own control to aggregate resources and share my own stories for folks to find. +

+

+ Now that's a bit ambitious of course. I understand that. Realistically, I plan to write my personal journery here as a resource first and share any resources I've come across in the meantime. Heck, this will also do wonders, with my short memory, acting as almost a universal bookmark! +

About her, the woman in my eye

+

+ When I was little I would stare into the lights around my room. It would create little spots in my vision; flickering and dancing that would eventually fade away. As they would face every time the every shrinkering flickering dot would become this image of a woman's face. She was beautiful. She captivated me. I would do this constantly growing up. I would stare into my ceiling lights, in the lights coming through my window, anywhere - if it meant I could see her. I would try staring at larger lights hoping that final flickering dot was larger and I would be able to see her more clearly. She stayed with me for most of my childhood. It wasn't until I was around highschool that I lose memory of seeing her. Which makes sense since this was when the lights, in general, faded from my eyes. But who was she? +

+

+ I like to think she was me. She is me. +
