Our first anthology was published in 2023. A collection of stories by and for members of the transgender and gender-diverse community on Epekwitk (Prince Edward Island). Individual poems and short stories are weaved together to tell our stories by us in our own words. In a world pre-occupied with binaries, the stories in this anthology take the reader on a journey of the spaces and places, In-Between.

This is an anthology by and for the 2S/TGDNB+ folks on Epekwitk, and everyone is invited along for the journey. We have come together for the second year to co-create this tangible reminder that we are here, we are growing, and we are building our futures. In these pages, we share our stories, our artworks, our struggles, and our successes. In Bloom is an exploration of self and community.
