"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard United Airlines Flight 930, nonstop service to London Heathrow. My name is Sarah Radcliffe, and I will be your purser on today's flight. Please pay attention to the safety video highlighting the safety features of this Boeing 777. Thank you for choosing the LESBIAN-friendly skies today."

What Becomes You
I've known of this book for months, but haven't even mentioned it here... until now.
Transman Aaron Raz Link wrote a memoir called What Becomes You, which has gotten rave reviews. I first heard of this book because I know Aaron through his cousin, Karen Bradley, whom I befriended and met through her political online organization, Democracy Cell Project.
Now that I am looking at several weeks of privacy come May, and that I am re-casting Sarah's story into a focused fictional memoir, I need to get some inspirations from a real-life transgender memoir. Another significance here: Sarah was Aaron's girl name as well!
I've wishlisted the book and will be ordering it in May.
