In highschool I wrote a Very trans short story.

Various details are mostly irrelevant but one of the characters (the deuter/antagonist) was Very trans without being trans. His internet person was hyperaggressive, brash but also witty and insightful. Unfortunately in real life he was short, unassuming, and had the hilarious name of “Errol” which he loathed. Fundamentally a story about being trapped in your physical body but being more.

I won a short story contest with this short story. Still remember being quite pleased when they told me that they thought a boy had wrote it.

Anyone with half a brain might have put the puzzle pieces together but not I.
