Cool City

Cool City: A place where only cool people live. Image and reputation are the only things that matter in Cool City, and when people are in the public eye, they're on their best behavior, dressed in their best outfits. In private, it's a different story. The strain of keeping up a false front takes a toll on the citizens. When the facade begins to crack and the true nature of human beings shows through, a certain special someone arrives to give the city a much needed makeover.

VAPOUR TRAILS

By Touch the Light

I'm not sure if this qualifies as a tg story or not. I'll warn potential readers now that it's basically a conversation between two brothers in a pub, and makes no reference whatsoever to the transition process as an individual might experience it. Those of you who care to investigate further may think, like I do, that the story's saving grace is its brevity.

Fear of Faith

Once again, do not expect a joyful tale reading this. On the contrary however, I write misery when I am at my happiest and vice versa.

This may seem like a shot at religion, but it is far from that. It tackles individuals and means no offence to any group of people, in fact I wrote this with a slight pro-religion perspective.

This is a work of complete fiction.

A kid in the freshmen class the year before came out and that kid was harassed to no end. It got to the point where the boy was singled out in everything he did.
