Girl Shock: I Dressed as a Girl for Halloween and then She Took Over My Life!
I recently released this book. The title and subtitles pretty much speak for themselves regarding what the book is about! Info at https://www.mariakonner.com/new-book
It was quite a lot of work, but a labor of love, and I wanted to capture the excitement of living in San Francisco while transitioning, including the excitement, the confusion along this journey, and so many things I discovered about the culture of this wonderful city and the spiritual and divine experiences of crossing the gender divide. Please check out the book and take a little journey…;)
Here’s a description:
Self-discovery. Sexuality. Trans. LGBTQ. Gender Fluidity. Drag. Kinky Sex. Love. Lust. Entertainment. Rock & Roll. Even Comics.
This book has it all, and it is all true.
It was all supposed to be for a costume.
Maria Konner takes you on her journey from living a frustrated and bored straight- dude life in the ’burbs to becoming a fabulous trans entertainer in San Francisco. She also begins to discover herself sexually after a Halloween costume feels better than she ever imagined. What starts as a lark, quickly becomes a lifestyle.
Told in a frank and entertaining manner, Maria details her experiences at Diva’s, the legendary trans bar located two blocks from her new apartment. There, she enters into a world of alternative lifestyles, sexual experimentation, crossdressing, and hardcore kink as she tests the boundaries of her sexuality.
At the same time, she examines the changing concept of femininity within herself and launches her online video series Under the Golden Gate as a performer, host, and producer.
Girl Shock also takes you inside the underground of San Francisco for a true insider’s look at art, music, performance, and humanity. It is full of pictures and links to her favorite videos from the Under the Golden Gate library (www.underthegoldengate.com).
Join Maria Konner on this raunchy, wild ride to self-discovery and get Girl Shocked!
