When her new lease on life is suddenly given an expiration date, O decides to face her fears, and her past, to fulfill a lifelong dream most would never dare... or would honestly even want to. She'll need to recruit long-lost friends, former enemies, and brand new allies to infiltrate her former high school as they battle much more than the squad of angry teenagers they manage to piss off. They'll be forced to face the consequences of their mistakes, the discovery of their secrets, and the shocking connections that will either tear them all apart or bring them closer than they've ever been.

It's more than the story of a transgender woman finding peace with her past. It's the story of a small town learning what true love really is... or at least what it could be. It's a moving and witty reflection on who all of us really are. It's a touching tale that might not yet be true, but hopefully exists in a future we can all create together. It's The Beginning of October.
