Hi, I'm Gillian. I'm a writer of short fiction mostly scifi and fantasy with forays into other genres as needed. I try to write as many trans women characters as I can. Since my stories are frequently so short, this detail can get lost. So, when in doubt just assume the main character is a trans woman.

I also have a podcast, Quiet of the Night Podcast, that I'm doing stuff with. It started as a fictional true crime podcast with episodes based on tv or movies. Then I did some review/discussion episodes on Repairman Jack books. Going forwards it will likely be a mix of both and other stuff.

All my stories plus blog posts are also posted on my website, www.Gillian-Ybabez.com. They can be found on the Table of Contents page sorted by genre with serial stories grouped together at the top.

My first ebook collection, "Love and Comets" and Other Stories, can be bought here at a name your own price. My second ebook collection, "The Wrong Sort of Circle" and Other Stories, can be bought here also for a name your own price.
