Not Getting Away With Anything
Hello! My name is Calla, I use she/they pronouns, and I live in Los Angeles, California. I am the writer and creator of Coming of Queer. My aim with this blog series is to promote the depoliticization of queer folks like myself. I doubt very much that this blog will ever make it anywhere, but I know that it will make me feel better on a personal level. I hope you stick around and either demystify trans folks or find a soothing place to land for yourself here in these stories.

Transcendence
It had been years since Alex had changed their password. They had been too scared, too scared of what might happen if someone found out their secret. But as they sat in front of their computer, staring at the login screen, they knew that it was time to reset their password.
