Trans Parenting Anthology

A project of Demeter Press (see other related projects).

Permanently Closed: This project is permanently closed to submissions (July 2025). We provide the following information as an archive.

About

This anthology explores trans parenting and raising trans/non binary children from a broad, interdisciplinary perspective. We welcome submissions that explore various dimensions of trans parenting in literary, cultural, artistic, political, historical, social, and economic contexts.

Contributions which address race/ethnicity, age, dis/ability, gender, and sexual orientation,

in relation to trans parenting are particularly encouraged. A wide range of non-normative

family units and trans parenting examinations is welcomed. We welcome both academic

and practically oriented contributions, as well as poetry and other creative contributions,

including autobiographical pieces.
