This is my book of biographies.
But they are biographies on the forgotten people in history: Women, people of color, LGBTQ+, and other minorities. Because their stories deserved to get told. I will upload whenever the heck I feel like it, because biographies take a lot of time and research to fully capture the stories that need to be told.
NOTE: Mentions of sexism, rape, sexual assault, homophobia, transphobia. etc. I'll put specific warnings at the beginnings of each chapter when needed.
All sources will be listed in MLA format at the end of each chapter. Feel free to research these yourself

Not a Fad: A Trans History Lesson
Although trans* visibility has only increased in recent years, it is not a new experience. Transgressing gender boundaries is not a fad. Trans* history is as diverse and far-reaching as human civilization. In this book I will explore gender nonconformity in early Western civilization. My focus will be on stories from Late Antiquity through the early Middle Ages in Europe. Before reading, please be aware that there have been a lot of negative attitudes directed towards gender variant people throughout history. Negativity does not negate our existence! We exist today, we existed in yesteryear, and our history should no longer be ignored.Complete![America's little secret [1]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/363362496-256-k774575.jpg)
America's little secret [1]
America, the missing personification of the world of nations. Finding out about the personification at a gala no less....... who would of guessed America had a personification, and a woman one at that. Imagine the surprise on the nations faces at finding out the World Superpower is a female personification! It isn't that woman don't exist but most thought it would be male! [So hi again, probably won't post this ever but if I do HI! I've been on a small writing craze along with reading craze about America not having a personification so why not join 'em? Also, this is basically a crossover between Countryhumans and Hetalia! Hetalia names belong to their creators unless mentioned, state names belong to me and Lectwist's! *This is a series story! Two more will be made unless I change my mind and make more! It's a trilogy currently. Book one: You are here! Book two: "America's little past [2]" Book three: -PENDING-* For those that like my OC Lectwist Island, she'll be in this story but less present as it'll focus more on America and the other countries instead of home. Also her and America didn't marry until the Great Depression here just so I don't confuse you (and myself) as I write this- *HEAVILY inspired by "Mother Amelia" cover art is mine! Sorry for this but I'm using Hetalia so be prepared for confusion if you don't know it! Sorry again-! 1st: Femamerica (October 12, 2024)]Complete![I Should Be Proud Of Who I Am[BLM][LGBTQ+][Complete]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/257194437-256-k343508.jpg)
I Should Be Proud Of Who I Am[BLM][LGBTQ+][Complete]
This is based on black history month and pride. I will play myself as the main character: "I've never really been proud of who I was. I didn't like my skin color and I didn't like how I looked. People asked me why. I told them...I don't look pretty. People ask me to choose; either date a guy or date a girl...I said 'nah I don't want choose, I'm good with the choice I have made.' I Should Be Proud Of Who I Am. I wasn't proud back then until now." - Miki Davenport(me) Trigger Warning⚠️: homophobic, abuse, language, sex, violence, blood Please read if 18+...I love making stories and I hate some of the trigger warnings bc I have some of those, but it goes with the story so be careful. All of you are like my kids, I want you all to BE VERY CAREFUL. If you see something you don't like, I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND going to the next chapter or the chapter after that or just don't read the book. Word Count: 60k wordsComplete

INFLUENCER BO B💋TCH (Lesbian)
✔️Romance || WomanxWoman || short novelette was written together with Bibi ❤️ Sarcastic, sharp-tongued Ava Allard didn't get to college. Almost ten years have passed since then, but the young woman is still working at her mom's misfortunate ("cursed" as it is secretly called by all family members) coffeeshop that Ava's dad left after the divorce. Usually the "Fathers and Sons" kind of relationship is not simple, especially when we are talking about the Allards: it's not easy for young redhead Ms. Ava to forgive her father or find mutual understanding with mom who believes her daughter should be more prosperous and financially independent at her age. Harvard graduate Bonita Suárez, aka world famous influencer BoB💋tch, is having the time of her life: elaborate cocktail parties, fabulous fashion shows, photo shooting, luxurious balls, elite clubs, global traveling, and aesthetic vlogging, the list could be endless. She's never alone surrounded by her devoted squad, fans, and rich family members. Next month fashionista Bo is launching her own cosmetics line and is about to release her autobiography "Every Shade of Me". She must be very happy, right?

Dark coffee
I've often heard that love comes without warning when we least expect it. However, what happens if we don't try this new love opportunity by fear of suffering, being hurt and disappointed again?Is it true that it's never too late or there's a limit? If there's a limit, where it ends? Now that I know all these answers. I know that life isn't about a happy ending but the whole story itself. I just wish someone had told me that before I met you. Today I look back at our story and I wouldn't have changed anything about the way we met. It was just too good... ***WARNING for those who had been sexually assaulted, the content of this story might be sensitive***Complete
Alienated- Evie Anson
-A first person story of surviving wlw sexual assault, abusive relationships, gaslighting and childhood anxiety. -the book where every story matters and each voice deserves to be heard. -This book is based on a true story and personal experiences, I've recently written this after struggling with processing my abuse and assault so this book really means the world to me. You guys are the first people to read it so I really hope you enjoy it and if you are in a similar situation I hope this brings you some form of comfort, like a warm hug in the form of words. -There is not nearly enough awareness around women on women sexual assault so I'm here to do my part and add my drop into the ocean. -When this book is published (and turned into an actual book lol) it will have a special section at the back for the reader to personalise if they don't have anyone to talk to or just want to get their feelings written down. This section will also offer support, statistics and advice from someone who has been in the same position. -Any funds made when I publish this book will be going to a chosen sa survivors charity. I hope you enjoy and remember you are not alone my loves🫶🏻
Although trans* visibility has only increased in recent years, it is not a new experience. Transgressing gender boundaries is not a fad. Trans* history is as diverse and far-reaching as human civilization. In this book I will explore gender nonconformity in early Western civilization. My focus will be on stories from Late Antiquity through the early Middle Ages in Europe. Before reading, please be aware that there have been a lot of negative attitudes directed towards gender variant people throughout history. Negativity does not negate our existence! We exist today, we existed in yesteryear, and our history should no longer be ignored.
