SUMMARY:STORIES ON SUNDAY: No Offense: A Memoir in Essays (Jackie Domenus)
DESCRIPTION:Enjoy a reading\, then hear the story behind the stories during Stories on Sunday with Jackie Domenus\, author of No Offense: A Memoir in Essays.\n \nFrom the Jacket Copy: When Jackie “came out” in 2014\, right as the Trump era was revving up\, she began paying closer attention to the inappropriate questions\, uncomfortable reactions\, and pointed assumptions about sexuality and gender she was witnessing and now experiencing firsthand. \nNo Offense: A Memoir in Essays takes a magnifying glass to subtle moments that many people don’t recognize as homophobic or transphobic\, exploring the impact of microaggressions on LGBTQ+ folks. Blending personal essay and cultural critique\, the collection confronts society’s reactions to queerness at poignant moments in Jackie’s life\, from wedding planning to OBGYN appointments to the Pulse Nightclub Massacre\, and beyond. Revealing the complex and tender moments that sculpted their identity from a tomboy adolescence to gender exploration as an adult\, No Offense analyzes the loaded conversations queer and trans folks face every day on topics like labels\, haircuts\, Halloween costumes\, and more. \nWe hope you will join us! Note: All registered attendees will get a link to the recording\, so be sure to register even if you cannot make it life. \nAbout the Series: Stories on Sundays are bi-monthly readings from a recent/forthcoming work of creative nonfiction followed by an author interview + audience Q&A. Your registration helps fund our contributor payments and other costs associated with running our journal. \nMeet the Speaker \nJackie Domenus (they/she) is a queer writer from New Jersey. Their first book\, No Offense: A Memoir in Essays\, was released by ELJ Editions in Feb. 2025.
