My first (!!) story is out in the world. Thank you Sarah @innerworlds.bsky.social for tucking it in with the vibrant, heartfelt stories of Issue 9. ✨

"You sure can."
"Good. I like this song."

I'm a mediocre cishet man who belongs to the dominant ethnic/religious/caste group in my country of residence but I've only ever had the confidence of a very nervous streetside puppy. I blame this on my father who also was a mediocre etc etc with the confidence of a very nervous etc etc.
