One of my comments on my Huffington Post article about Don Ennis came from Alana Sholar.
It just happens that she's written a book, "Hung In The Middle", about her own story as a transgender woman in rural Kentucky.
She is a great example of something I've long said: Nothing will do more to help people understand us than hearing our stories, whether in person, in print or elsewhere. Even the least articulate among us can, I think, have a greater effect (if a person is open-minded) than taking, as someone else so eloquently put it, "Remedial Trans 101 for the eighth time".
I intend to read Ms. Sholar's book.
