I'm considering being brave next week.
My sister is coming to visit me for the holiday, and I'm toying with the idea of coming out to her as an author of internet transgender fiction. She herself is into gay fanfics, so I'm pretty sure she has an open mind to LGBT issues.
If I were to do so, which of my stories would be the best one to show her first? Probably something romantic from my light side, but I can't decide.
So if you've read my stuff and have an opinion on the most fitting introduction to my work, post a comment.
It's highly likely that I'll chicken out and choose to remain my big comfortable closet, but life is full of suprises.
Comments
Either
Ready? Okay! or Oscar Night. Both are sweet and delightful reads even if you aren't TG.

Hi Sweetie !
I would recommend the " Light Works", my favorites are Ginger and Mr.Fogey, and Santa Monica, but they're all really good Jenni!
Loving Hugs, Talia
I know I haven't read all of your stories
But I have Santa Monica, Ginger and Mr. Fogey, and Masquerades marked as favorites in my Bookmarks. Hope you can get out of the closet, and that your sister will be pleasantly surprised.
I have read all of your works here at Big Closet!
Though I have enjoyed all your stories, I have read Ready? OK! and Oscar Night at least 3 times each. They are my favorites.

Santa Monica
I would put Santa Monica in the running I bring this story out Christmas each year since it has come out, a sweet stories and how can you wrong with Santa.
Another thought
Forget which story might be the nicest, most popular or recommended. Instead pick the story in which the main character is most like you. The one your sister will read and go, "that's you, isn't it."

I'm with the Ready? Okay! or Oscar Night Group
I've read both several times and really like both stories. The recommendation of a story with a character based on you or maybe even better based on her does have some merit if such exists.
Whatever you do, I hope it works out for you.
I vote
I vote for "Ginger and Mr.Fogey".
Ditto...
...though I don't think I've read everything you've posted here.

Failure to launch
It turned out not to come down to needing courage; I didn't get enough of an opportunity for a private conversation during her visit. Maybe next time.
