We apologize for the down time lately. Our web hosts decided to do a server re-build that did NOT go as well as expected. This necessitated a lot of troubleshooting time to get things working right again.

Reluctant Press is the premiere publisher of illustrated transgender, transsexual, transvestite and cross-dress fiction since 1989. Reluctant Press authors are real transgender and transsexual people who live real lives in our community. This is a labor of love, inspired by the inspirational stories of our REAL people.

Reluctant Press™ publishes at least three exciting new books every month in saddle stitch or paperback format. These books represent the work of experienced authors and illustrators and each is an original, previously unpublished story.

In addition to new books in print each month, Reluctant Press™ also regularly adds two or three stories to its online inventory from its vast storehouse of great fantasy fiction. These stories are not run of the mill amateur fiction like you usually find on the web, but are real books in Adobe Acrobat^TM format, complete with the original illustrations!

If you'd like to check out what's online now, go to the downloads index page, or just start browsing the classics.
