Pluto destroys and transforms. The first book in the Pluto Returns series, Hex the Patriarchy, follows Lilith through an extreme, multi-year case of medical gaslighting. Over the course of the COVID 19 pandemic and into summer 2023, Lilith is dismissed as crazy by her doctors, her family, and her closest friends. They insist she can’t be sick, and that she can’t know the things she claims to know. Lilith is told to call a psychiatrist while her illness nearly kills her. She begs friends and family for help, only to see her social supports disintegrate around her.

At 50 years of age, Amber Needham suddenly went from having perfect vision to becoming blind. Despite the life-changing tragedy of losing her sight and the frustrating challenges this created in her day-to-day life, she eventually came to accept, manage, and even celebrate her blindness. Her disability taught her a new way to see—with her heart instead of her eyes.
