So what about reversing the marketing process? Have readings, book signings, etc, before it's published? (Maybe not book signings where you give out an actual copy, but events at a book store, to drum up attention?)
Letters to the papers? Local radio/talk shows? Also, is there a website for the book? If every time someone searched for 'gender issues' your book came up in the top 100, that would help get it published?
Can you 'fuzz' a resume to give the impression that you've been published before? Or can you revise/excerpt part of it to publish in a local LBGT periodical? How about the local trans community? Have you talked about it to them or something?
Failure is quitting. Everything else is steps on the way to success. Partial success is more likely in life than full success. You just have to work harder to add up to full success.
