I don't want anyone to jump to confusions over this but I am feeling a bit goose bumpy. A fledgling publishing company has offered me the chance to write short articles on Sustainability, the Environment, and the development of new energy sources. I am not an engineer, but I do have loads of hands on experience in the field, and have developed an opinion on what the difficulties are, and what needs to happen.

So far, they said that I could make money and could be paid for my work. At my age, I have pretty much felt like I had shouted my last hurrah. And who knows, maybe this aging and used up transgender Muslim, can use a little of her energy to give someone younger a bit of a hand up?

Please pray for them and me.

Khadijah, I will pray for them and you. Pay that they like your articles and that they accept you for who you are.

Congratulations!

I'm sure you'll do well. You have bounced back from a bunch of hits in the past, so a challenge that will get you ahead rather than just treading water is just the thing.

I am an engineer, so if you have questions, or just want to run something past me, go ahead and PM me or write to me at Ray dot Drouillard at gmail dot com.
