MOVED

final version:

And the kid Anna is based off of is actually this sweet peasant girl who is rescuing her best friend whom everyone else thought drowned and whom no one cared for because mirror shards got in his eyes and he only saw beauty in snowflakes while everything else was just disgustingly foul to him. Except he didn’t drown because he was whisked away by the snow queen.

Like this girl gives her shoes to the river to find out he didn’t drown. Her hair ribbons to the birds to find out who took him. Works her hands raw to get to him and has to suffer a mental breakdown because she got SO FUCKING CLOSE to saving him and he won’t even look at her because he wants to solve this puzzle the snow queen gave him.

ze’z got no money but ze’z got a book! 💕

i’m broke, FOSTA and local trafficking/sting concerns have dried up my job prospects, and there’s shit for local work here. i am very gay and increasingly tired and continue to wait on my disability hearing,,,

since 2016, i’ve been writing and editing poetry on transness, developmental trauma, sex work, diaspora, language, and rebuilding family, and i’m selling it collected in a 112-page PDF on a name your price kind of basis.

funds raised thru the book go toward things like: the $190/mo toward rent and utilities i don’t have otherwise covered, ~$50/mo for bus fare (mostly to doctor’s appointments), and eventual moving expenses if anything’s left over.

if you’re interested in Gay And Trans art from reaches of poverty and diaspora, please consider supporting me and my work!! and thank you sm to everyone who has shown support so far!
