I'd been called queer practically ever since I started school, but I didn't really find out what it meant until seventh grade. This was back when gay still meant happy to most people, and queer was an insult.
I was small for a boy my age, both in height and body build, and I ha...

Brian never wanted to be a girl, but when you have an actress for an older sister, a HUGE resemblance to her, and then throw in an agent who would do pretty much anything to get a contract — it was better to go with the flow, wasn't it?
Or was that just a good excuse?

I know I screamed because Mom jerked the wheel, then jerked it back to avoid crashing into somebody, while shouting, “What!? What!”
I covered my face with my hands and my phone, shouted back,. “I’m sorry! I’m sorry!”
Mom was really angry with me, “Don’t ev...

I pushed a strand of hair out of my face and smiled at Jack, trying to look sleepy and confident.
"Whoa," he said, grinning. "They must have had a box of new attitude in there."
The sales lady giggled. "I was right," she offered. "Target should pay you to wear their clothes." 2020-09-04 22:03:21 +0000 UTC View Post

The trouble with Todd started when my cousin Jenny Parsons introduced us at a Harbordale WCIL baseball game where I was working as the team mascot, the Harbordale Blue-Greenie. I was supposed to be an otter, though what otter ever had blue and green fur, I don’t know, but the team ...

Hannah was grouchy when she got up and found me in the bathroom before her. I'd just gone in to pee but discovered that my braid had come loose a bit. Since I intended to leave it in place until Mom and I had shopped for some new haircare thingies, I had partially undone the braid to...
