Written with White’s signature honesty, irreverence, and wit, The Loves of My Life is the culmination of a legend's life and work, a delightful and moving tour of over seventy years of being unabashedly gay and in love with love in all its forms.

This memoir is a testament to the enduring power of love, resilience, and memory—a tribute to one mother’s extraordinary strength and an intimate exploration of the universal journey through loss and healing.

Holding On by a Thread is a heartbreaking and eye opening memoir that combines the tragic consequences of transitioning from male to female with the hopelessness of isolation and lost love. Set in the heart of a major city, the story revolves around the Wolscht family and their struggle with Paul's transgender issues, as she becomes Stefonknee. Through the eyes of Stefonknee, listeners are taken on a journey of discovery, suffering, and unexpected tragedy as she endeavors to create her new life as a woman coping with mental illness, homelessness and incarceration.

Coming Out and Coming Through is Matt Smeltzer's autobiographical story of his life growing up gay in a conservative Christian household, becoming the youth leader at his church, coming out, and the subsequent actions taken by the church in the wake of this revelation. Facing adversity could never break his spirit. He chose to take his struggles and turn them into empowerment and positivity to prove that you do not have to choose between your sexuality and your religion.

This is not your mother's memoir. In The Chronology of Water, Lidia Yuknavitch expertly moves the listener through issues of gender, sexuality, violence, and the family from the point of view of a lifelong swimmer turned artist. In writing that explores the nature of memoir itself, her story traces the effect of extreme grief on a young woman's developing sexuality that some define as untraditional because of her attraction to both men and women.

So he started asking himself questions: What did it mean to be a graphic designer with his point of view? What did it mean to be a Black graphic designer?
