Thank you for visiting the website for author Rachel Pepper. This site has information and links to my books, current projects, and other tidbits. There's also contact information where you can contact me. I appreciate hearing from my readers and your interest and support of my books.

My latest book project is entitled Transitions of the Heart: Stories of Love, Struggle and Acceptance by Mothers of Transgender and Gender Variant Children. This amazing collection by mothers of both adults and children who are transgender and gender variant will be published by Cleis Press in spring 2012. More than 30 mothers from the US, Canada and the UK shared their stories with me, some for the very first time, in this ground-breaking anthology. I can't wait till this book is published, for I know it will change the hearts and minds of so many people, and lead to better  understanding and acceptance of transgender people and their families. My other books include The Ultimate Guide to Pregnancy for Lesbians (Cleis Press, now in its second edition, with more than 15,000 copies sold!), The Gay and Lesbian Guide to College Life (Princeton Review Press), and The Transgender Child: A Handbook for Families and Professionals, co-written with Stephanie Brill (Cleis Press).

My books can be purchased at your local independent bookstore or online. They are available in the US, Canada, Europe, and other countries. Both The Ultimate Guide to Pregnancy and The Transgender Child can also be ordered directly through Cleis Press. The Transgender Child is now available in German!
