What’s way more fun than tirelessly promoting my own book? Taking a quick breather to promote other people’s! (Though I’d be remiss not to at least mention: You can always purchase a signed copy of Mind Game from Astoria Bookshop.)
I’ll be participating in two book events in June — both in Manhattan, both focused on trans athletes. Come hang!
The Other Olympians by Michael Waters
The story of the early trans athletes and Olympic bureaucrats who lit the flame for today’s culture wars.
Make It Count by CeCé Telfer
June 19 at 6 p.m., Bluestockings
By turns harrowing and hopeful, Make It Count is the inspiring story of the first openly transgender woman to win a NCAA title, following her traditional upbringing in Jamaica, her fight to become a U.S. citizen, and her efforts to achieve her Olympic dreams.
Much more soon on my own writing, but here’s my latest piece, a Brittney Griner book review for Slate, to tide you over. See ya at the bookstores!
