OKAY.
I know of several older writers here that are among the best authors that I have ever read, yet they do not publish their work on Amazon or other retail outlets because they are in the closet and have a spouse or family or IRS issues and cannot afford the risk of publishing.
I am not an attorney, but I would think that if they are unable to profit from their work, why wouldn't it be possible (and legal) to assign the rights to a suitable NPO or transgender support organization, like Mermaids?
I just think that it is a tragedy that so many beautiful stories are being withheld from the broader audience that they so richly deserve.

A lot of people would really appreciate good stories with trans main characters, specially if those stories helped them understand transgendered people.
Stupidity is a capital offense. A summary not indictable.
I agree
I think that Karin Bishop, Tanya Allan and a host of others are bringing these stories to a broader audience. A good story is a good story....period.
Be kind to those who are unkind, tolerant toward those who treat you with intolerance, loving to those who withhold their love, and always smile through the pains of life.
