For our fiction section, we are looking for short stories and other imaginative pieces of writing. Your story can be fantastical or realistic.  It can include trans characters or be about anything else.  The most important thing is to imagine  a story that you are excited about telling, and write it down as best you can.

 

Because of copyright laws, we can’t publish fanfiction. If your story was inspired by someone else’s, consider changing the names of the characters and some details about their circumstances to make it more your own. 

 

If you’re not sure where to start, here are some prompts related to our first issue’s theme: Strength. 

• What is an unexpected way someone could be strong?

• Is strength always the best way to solve a problem?
