An outstanding, seminal work
Yeah, I know. "Seminal" is a word used far, far, too commonly. But for this blog, I will say it with enthusiasm.
"Emily's virtual rocket" is a good work, but by its very nature, I'm aware of its limits. Even those who do the same work as I do, are usually better than I am, because of the hunt-n-peck method for my typing.The only advantage I have is LOTS of hard, diligent work.
"A Gender Variance Who's Who" puts all of us to shame. If it weren't the case that "Emily's..." mainly deals with the present, and "Gender Variance..." with the much broader past, I'd work on selling icicles.
Kudos to you, Zagria. If you'd like to see her work, please press "An outstanding, seminal work" above, in blue. Thanks.
