Yeah, I love that this wasn't a case of loving an author until a spectacular fail made that impossible. I know he's specifically said that he's not part of a multiple system, but I've never seen him say anything either way about being trans. Seems possible but unlikely- he'd have to have had transitioned quite young, since he wrote FOTH when he was twenty-two.
I've seen a fair bit of positive feedback (and no negative, so far) from multiple systems regarding his handling of Andrew and Penny and their alters, which is also heart-warming; talk about another stigmatized group of people who only tend to make in into narratives as a convenient plot device...
