The Rules:Clone thyself Learn teleportation. The sooner the better. Trust no one. These are the rules I learned as a middle school teacher, though it was the last one that drove me from the classroom forever. Like many educators, I couldn't survive the politics. After thirteen years, I bailed. How did I, an abuse-surviving queer, end up teaching in the middle of the Bible Belt? Better yet, how did I survive?

The Rules:Clone thyself Learn teleportation. The sooner the better. Trust no one. These are the rules I learned as a middle school teacher, though it was the last one that drove me from the classroom forever. Like many educators, I couldn't survive the politics. After thirteen years, I bailed. How did I, an abuse-surviving queer, end up teaching in the middle of the Bible Belt? Better yet, how did I survive? New Rule: Neither my silence nor my identity is for sale at any price. My former vice principal said it best (though I wasn't supposed to see that email) when he asked, "Why does she always have to write a damn novel?" So here I am. Writing a damn novel. As to the why...because I believe in changing the world, one word at a time. Navigating discrimination, whether it's from employers, medical professionals, colleagues, or family, is often fraught with uncertainty. Join Raven Oak on their journey of transition and self-discovery in a world built on silence.
Autorenporträt
Multi-international award-winning speculative fiction author Raven Oak (they/them) is best known for their epic fantasy Boahim Trilogy (Amaskan's Blood, Amaskan's War, Amaskan's Honor) and their space opera, Class-M Exile. Also, they have almost two dozen short stories published in various anthologies. They're even published on the moon! Raven spent most of their K-12 education doodling and writing 500 page monstrosities that are forever locked away in a filing cabinet.Besides being a writer, they're a disabled, nonbinary artist who enjoys getting their game on with tabletop games, indulging in cartography and etymology, and staring at the ocean. They live in the Seattle area with their wife, and their three kitties who enjoy lounging across the keyboard when writing deadlines approach. Their hair color changes as often as their bio does, and you can find them at www.ravenoak.net.
