Author Information

I was born in Massachusetts and grew up in Florida. It was around the age of five I started to realize although I may have been a boy i secretly felt I should have been born a girl. Too young to understand at that point why I felt that way I kept my secret to myself worried I would be in big trouble if my parents found out about it. So i kept my secret to myself always with the fear what would happen if people found out what I decretly wished I could be. It lead me down a path in life where I hated myself because I couldn't make these feelings I had go away while at the same time I could not be the man everyone always expected I should be. I was quiet and withdrawn and stayed to myself as I continuously battled the emotions and feelings I tried to deny existed in me. For forty years this went on untfor so many years wanted to becomeil I reached a point I couldn't fight the feelings i had hidden away anymore. I finally sought the professional help I needed to come to terms with the fact I was transgender. With that I made the decision to transition into the woman I had I had always needed to be. On January 1st, 2002, I began my journey of transitioning with beginning of going on Hormone Replacement Therapy or HRT. A little bit over a year and a half later I would travel to Thailand where I completed my journey having gender reassignment surgery. A few years ago I started to write poetry as a way to express feelings and issues I had inside me. I wrote about my life being transgender and those things and issues in life we all face who are transgender. I kept writing and writing poetry and I started showing them to my friends. They would always comment how good my poetry was and would even ask if I ever thought of publishing a book of poetry. I soon realized that I had about enough poems that I possible could release a book of poetry. Growing up I had a dream about becoming a writer and maybe publishing my books. I never tried to follow that dream because I didn't think I was good enough a writer that no one would want to read what I wrote. Thanks however to my friends and their compliments about my poetry I finally decided to try and make my dream come true. That has lead me to finally put all my poems together and release my first book,""Poetry and Prose From A Transgender Soul"".
