How do You Dream?
I dream quite a bit. I don’t always remember my dreams, but when I do, the experience is incredibly intense. I can feel the action happening and sometimes, I don’t want it to end, especially if it is a good dream. Sometimes, if it is so good, I will physically…

Dear Barbara Walters…I’m a Trans Guy, Too
After the sensationalistic, media circus surrounding Thomas Beatie and his 20/20 interview, which revealed he’s pregnant again, I felt compelled to write Barbara Walters a letter. While this is not the formal letter I sent to her (though I mention many of the same things I wrote to her, in…

Sometimes Being in a Wheelchair Sucks
I’m not the type to complain much about my disability. I rarely feel sorry for myself for being in a wheelchair. It’s pretty much natural to me. I’ve accepted that and there is nothing that is going to change it until a cure for Spinal Muscular Atrophy is found. I…
