"From the sticks of Oregon to Central America, California, Kansas, and many points in between, Not Dead Yet is an autobiographical tale of an idealistic, rebellious, gender non-conforming indiviudual who, at a young age, was imprisoned in a state mental hospital. Upon release, the author finds salvation in a group of misfits at a recycling center, explores her own sexuality and becomes a pro-union activist agaisnt war, poverty, racism, and nuclear testing.

In a tone devoid of self-censorship, the author struggles to understand the racist ideologies and history of Portland and her connection to it. With humility and insight, he examines his own family skelotons of racism. Ramon/a takes us on a heartbreaking ride, making the connection between early childhood trauma and illness (MS) later in life. Through joy, loss, confusion, and despair, the author navigates us through hostile political climates, resisting a world too eager for conformity and callousness. A true survivor, Ramon/a has a unique tale to tell."

~ Christopher Robin, author of All I've Ever Wanted is Nothing to Do, Freaky Mumbler's Manifesto, and numerous other zines and chapbooks.
