Author describes what it's like when a man becomes a woman
Meet Juno Dawson. Juno is an awarding winning writer of fiction for young adults, a columnist with Glamour and Attitude magazines, and has just published her first book for adults, The Gender Games. Juno is 32, and has been writing full time for five years with considerable success – before that she was a primary school teacher. And a man. While still using the male pronoun, James Dawson taught my daughter for what she says was the most fun year of her school life – Mr Dawson was her favourite teacher.
His classes fizzed with enthusiasm. And then he left to pursue writing full time, and to become Ms Dawson.
