About US
Welcome! I’m Star Tavares. I’m queer, nonbinary, and intersex, and I use they/them pronouns. My hubby Jake is LGBTQIA+ too, as is our duck, name of Duck—he’s super-ducking awesome. He likes to call himself an award-winning duck because we wrote a screenplay about him that won some awards, and who are we to argue?

Want to know more about Star’s writing credits? Under another name, Star has published romance stories, novels, and novellas with presses like Harper Collins and Cleis, and has won awards for their shorter works from the likes of Glimmer Train, Screencraft, and Narrative, where they also worked as an editor. More recently, Star’s nonfiction about gender identity has appeared in The New York Times and at Huffington Post Personal.
