“Utopian fiction is really boring. I had to read a lot of it, and it's not that much fun. But they're fascinating to me as historical documents.

As I grew further I wanted to be a lesbian but I wasnâ€™t sure I would meet even the most basic membership criteria (though eventually I created a â€˜femme dykeâ€™ persona that worked well for over fifteen years). It wasnâ€™t until my early twenties that I was sure of at least one thing: I was an artist. Quite an accomplishment for anyone assigned female at birth in a culture that calls only male artists â€˜greatâ€™.”
