“I know nothing will happen to [CNA] because this world and the publishing industry value her more than the lives or wellbeing of trans people, which is something she knows as well.”

The lack of response @yumcoconutmilk pointed out is why I keep saying I’m only loyal to my work. Because cis people expect everyone else to ride with you for your causes, then leave Black trans people in the dust and slither away when it’s time to reciprocate that support.
So I’m not going to pretend that the publishing industry is my community, because I know painfully well it’s not. My community is a very small circle of people and entities. The community I serve are Black trans and queer people and the primary way I serve is through my work.
The farce that ‘we’re all in this together’ is often what’s used to extract labor in the name of ‘community’ and y’all won’t like me for not playing along, but I’ma put out these books either way because that’s why God bagged me into this body. I show up for the work.pic.twitter.com/bRTFJ80bjK
I’m not even here, baby, I’m a hallucination.
Honestly, cis people should just stop and think about what you’ve done for Black trans people before hitting up my agents with asks. There is no forgetting. I’m a Nigerian Gemini with a Scorpio rising, and I’m not even human. Park well.
Going to get Freshwater for my winter reading list. Unrelated: what type of cat is that?

Pet is one of the best novels for young people that I’ve read in years. Thank you for writing it.
Okay I had snagged a couple of your old feminized author shots (NYTimes and Scottie O) to put on "Who Is Like God" in my Short Reads class, but now I'm using this one instead. Thank you for putting yourself out there!
I do apologize for any offense. I love what I've read of your work, and I'm looking forward to reading more. I promise my question was in good faith.
