Its #IndieAugust, in the wake of censorship of indie creators. Seems a good time for #IndieAuthors to shout about the stories our books tell. & why we think they matter. So drop your best description, graphic & link! Reply so we can browse all in one thread! Repost for your followers if you like 😄

So, we're doing #IndieAugust, huh? Okay, well, here are a bunch of trans books, the majority of which are indie or self pub, which remains the primary venue by which trans people can have their stories told authentically.

On that note: Trans authors (I mean authors who are trans, NOT cis people who write about trans people), drop your book links here and I'll try to repost as many as I can throughout the day. Cis people: Repost trans authors' book links. Cis people who want to complain about being excluded: gtfo

Buying direct from authors means best cut for authors and is less likely to be hit by censorship. But where do you find authors selling direct? With conjured.ink 's catalogue still being planned, and it being #IndieAugust... Indie Authors, tell us about your books📚💙 & drop your direct sales links!

I saw this trend going around back in #IndieAugust, but I was so busy with work that I didn't get around to it until now 😅 You can support this soul possessing a suit of armor by buying their trans and lesbian romances here: riengray.shop riengray.itch.io www.amazon.com/stores/Rien-...
