A couple times people have suggested that I write my own Biography, and I have always demured, but those who know me say that I have such a funny way of telling stories that they would like to read it.
I'm afraid that most of my life is not Transgendered; only the echo of something dreadfully wrong once in a while. Still, along the way I was Manfully trying to be responsible and convincing as a male in the way that only a T girl can be. There were great adventures and tender moments along the way, and I should enjoy remembering some of them. There is nothing earth shaking, and I certainly have not left a mark on the face of our badly marred human existence.
I am old enough that I can laugh about most of my life now, but I still fear telling it would be a fools errand.

As I recall
You started out in a very strict Christian sect as a male. Now you are a Muslim female...seems to be there must be a good story to tell of that journey :)

My dear sweet sister....
...if you wrote your autobiography I'd read it in a heartbeat. You are precious to me, and every day of your life brought you here and now. It's great to know you, and I expect I would have been blessed knowing you at any moment in time along the way. As they say, have at it!

We are both probably Old enough to know better but Young enough not to care.

Go for it! :)
So what if most of it isn't dealing with your transition? There's a whole chunk of life beforehand and a whole chunk of life afterward - why just concentrate on the middle third? If there's a story or two in your life that's worth telling, then tell it!
You don't even have to follow the standard chronological sequence of events - the British BBC journalist/reporter/world affairs editor/correspondent John Simpson has written several volumes, recounting the places he's been and the people he's met, out of chronological sequence, often as a series of vignettes.
And if you encounter a less exciting part of a tale, you can either gloss over it or use a light sprinkling of poetic license - after all, the vast majority of readers won't know... :)

I've already heard some of it
But I know I haven't heard it all, and as Frank indicated, there is a good story to tell of your journey.
I'd like to hear/read more, and I believe your story would be of interest to many here.

It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.

Do you think you'll have time ?
Well, this won't need editing, I just want it to be my own words, but I know that you are busier than a one armed paper hanger. If I can't learn from the Dummy Book do you suppose you'll have time to post it? Should it be serial or should I do the whole thing and then publish it? I sort of like the non sequential idea.
I don't know how this doubled up, but i'm clearing this copy
