Becoming April - A Cozy Contemporary Gender-Bender.

"I'd heard ofchangelingsbefore. Who hasn't? After the alien ship crashed in the mountains of New Mexico about ten years ago, random people started coming down with Changeling Fever and coming out of it . . . changed. Some with mental powers like telepathy or telekinesis. Others with physical changes like complete regeneration of all injuries, or even full biological rejuvenation to bring them back to their prime of life. But me? A sixty-year-old man with a heart condition, I passed out from the pain of the change and woke up a teenagegirl.  Exit David Ross, whoever he was, and enter . . . April? So now I've got to figure out how to become a new person, stay unnoticed (changelings arenotpopular with a lot of people), and rebuild my life. It would be impossible if not for the help of my next-door neighbors, the Seevers. Instead it's become an adventure for all of us, but what's almost the worst thing about all this? I've got to go back to school."WARNING:While sex is not the focus of the story,Becoming Aprilhas been given anExplicit Sexual Contentlabel for a reason; sexual biology and sexuality are treated frankly and there is self-discovery, explicit language and references, and a single very explicit sex scene. If such subject matter is objectionable to you, give April's story a pass.For prospective readers;Becoming Aprilhas been described as "cozy" and a "slice-of-life" story, and although it does contain personal drama it is far from an epic fantasy. The story is FINISHED at 42 chapters, 90,000 words. The final chapter ofBecoming Aprilwas posted 12/22/25 and it will be published on Kindle in '26, but April's story is ongoing so I'm now posting the chapters ofFinding Aprilhere as I write them. Thank you to everyone who has enjoyed April's story and provided me valuable feedback!TP
