Meet Joyful Trans Romance Author, London Price

04/04/23 • 34 min

In this episode, we are joined by the wonderful London Price. She is a queer, cisgender author who writes joyful trans romance. London has two beautiful kids and has been married to her transgender wife for 17 years.

As an avid reader, London felt frustrated whenever she wanted to read queer romance and stumbled upon gigantic trigger warnings and stories that didn't resonate with her and her reality. She felt there was enough trauma and misunderstanding within the queer community, so she decided to write transgender romance stories focusing more on the joy of being queer and being part of a harmonious queer family.

Throughout our conversation, London talks about her reasons for writing this kind of transgender romance, how she reacted when her wife, who used to present as male, came out to her as trans 3 years ago, and how her wife’s transition helped her learn new things about herself. We also discuss boundaries, consent, how transgender people are usually represented in the media, and much more.
