Description
JAKE is about a teenage girl who is moving into JakeTown College and finds this difficult as she is Autistic, lesbian and transgender. Due to these difficulties he is bullied by her college peers. After a while she stands up in front of everybody in the college common room to help everybody to understand these problems in her day to day life. As an Autistic author, I have taken the bullying from my own past experiences. I am not transgender in real life, but due to some of my friends being transgender or gay, I thought that I would raise awareness of 2 very different ways of life. Despite me not being transgender or gay, I have several friends who are within the LGBTQ+ community. I have consulted LGBTQ+ topics and issues with them. These several friends are only a few experiences within the community. I am not taking anything away from gay or transgender authors.
