A random collection of over 1910 books and audiobooks authored by or about my transgender, intersex sisters, and gender-nonconforming persons all over the world. I read some of them, and I was inspired by some of them. I met some of the authors and heroines, some of them are my best friends, and I had the pleasure and honor of interviewing some of them. If you know of any transgender biography that I have not covered yet, please let me know.

Wiebke ter Lichten,
Original title: "Wiebke werden II: Teil II des Tagebuchs einer noch überwiegend männlichen Person, die sich mit Trans- Themen und dem weiblicher werden befasst (Sep. 2020 - Dez. 2020)" (Becoming Wiebke II: A still mostly male person’s diary dealing with trans issues and progression into being more female) by Wiebke ter Lichten.
"This is the second part of my diary and I recommend starting with the first part if you haven't done so already. As of December 31st, 2020, I am a 54-year-old father of a now 15-year-old son, a single parent for the last thirteen years. Since we live together there is still only little time for me to be Wiebke, my female persona, at home.
I still need to be cautious. You will read about my progression since the end of my first published diary part. From the fact alone, that it took me 19 months to write that first part and under four months to write a second part with a comparable size you can deduce that the speed in which Wiebke develops has increased manifold."
"In my current relationship of almost eleven years, I have communicated my situation openly right from the start, even before the start. My girlfriend still actively supports me, the first makeover was her Christmas present. These days she has even started to provide limited peer counseling to other partners.
I have begun to write a third part and again episodes will be added to this diary as they occur. The third book will take up loose ends I know I've left in this one, if and when there's something new to report. A special thank you goes to Rhonda Scharf again for proofreading this book and helping me with phrasing, I love what you're doing Rhonda!"
