Bonus: Denne Michele Norris

Tuck chats with author Denne Michele Norris (she/her) about the future of trans publishing — is this year's trans lit boom just a outlying blip? — and why violas are the most trans instrument, among other topics. Listen to the full episode on Patreon to hear discussions of transitioning alongside your novel's protagonist, working on a novel for 15 years, and editing stories of trans trauma without re-traumatizing anyone. Plus: Is it possible to deadname a fictional character? Is time linear? And why does Denne Michele suspect that you wouldn't survive publishing a book??
