Cable [4]
Bartending [5]
Leaving Isn’t the Hardest Thing[6][7]
Lambda Literary Award nomination
[edit]Hough was nominated for a Lambda Literary Award. The nomination was rescinded after comments Hough made on Twitter in support of the Sandra Newman book The Men. Hough used expletives towards a reader who criticized the book's premise without having read it, which Lambda said showed "troubling hostility toward transgender critics and trans-allies"; they said she had previously used social media to "harmfully engage with readers and critics alike".[8][9][10]
Finalist for Triangle Award for best lesbian nonfiction.[11]
