Thank you so much for being here!

This is the first week my newsletter being sent from Beehiiv, so please excuse me while I work out some kinks. Thanks so much to my friend, T.L. Pavlich, for helping me with the back-end work to transition platforms. You should subscribe to their newsletter, Theoretically Speaking. They’re also happy to help other trans and queer writers leave Substack, free of charge (cishets, they’ll help you too, for a fee!).
REMINDER: The next OOYL book club meeting is Sunday and REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED for access to the event.
We’ll be meeting at 4 PM ET/1 PM PT, and I’ll be joined by author Victoria Zeller.
This is our second fiction selection (and our first YA book) and I’m super stoked to be talking about ONE OF THE BOYS, a queer, trans football book. The book received starred reviews from Booklist, BookPage, and Publisher’s Weekly, so you know it’s good.
Regina George (the mini dachshund) also likes the book.
The discussion will be recorded and sent out afterwards for people who can’t attend in real time, but you must be registered for the event to receive the recording.
