I am Dog(s), by SoftAnnaLee (fiction/autobio hypertext, 2021)
“that bit of blindness remained no matter how short my hair got. I couldn't see certain things about myself. I couldn't see myself as "smart" enough to enjoy working with technology. I couldn't see myself as talented enough to make art. I couldn't see how much I wanted to be a woman.
But most of all...
It made me think I was human...”
Blurb: a semi-autobiographical narrative about a freshly cracked trans woman struggling with multiple discoveries she makes about herself one right after another. Done in Twine as a sort of interactive fiction/video game.
Why is it worth your time?: It is adorable and cute and heartwarming about two dog headmates in queer love with each other. It is the most joyful depiction of coming to selves-awareness I have ever seen. It also shows them in a community, interacting with other plurals in joyful, heartwarming ways.
