autogalatea:nectar-traps:Buy my poetry to help put a nonbinary artist through school and transition!!My name is Isla-Theis, I’m a nonbinary poet and student trying to put myself through an English degree and transition. My university doesn’t allow students to work during term-time, so I have no stable source of income and expenses (i.e. transportation, therapy, medicine) that I can’t meet.I’m also trying to afford to visit a gender identity clinic (GIC) for hormones and surgery referrals, which requires several appointments that will cost about £500 total unless I stay on a waitlist for three-plus years.To help pay for my living expenses, I’m selling Concentrics, a collection I wrote in the two years between confronting my PTSD and coming out as nonbinary. Much of the collection is a re-stitched facsimile of a journal I kept nights when the dysphoria and trauma symptoms were at their worst. More than anything, Concentrics is an exercise in alterity, in the places your mind goes when it can’t stay in a straight line, in being knocked off course again and again, and the decision between staying there or walking home.Concentrics is currently available as a 74-page PDF of poetry, journal fragments, and visual art.
