It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Ingenium Books’ author C.A. Gibbs. We have had the joy and privilege of working intensively with Charlotte since early 2018 when her book, The Picture Wall, was a burning idea and little more.
Ms. Gibbs is survived by her husband and two adult children. Motherhood, for her, was been defined by the autism, gender dysphoria, and mental illness experienced by her oldest child.
Ms. Gibbs was also a writer, transcriptionist, former elementary school teacher, wife, daughter, sister, friend, and proud dog-mom to a rambunctious golden retriever. Her favorite times were when the kids were around, once again filling the house with noise and laughter.
If you’d like to help contribute to Charlotte’s conversation, please consider purchasing a special “In Memory of Author CA Gibbs” paperback copy of The Picture Wall here. From the proceeds of this special order, a donation will be made to The Trevor Project in Charlotte’s name.
For years, her son kept a secret. A big secret.

The Picture Wall:
One Woman's Story of Being His Her Their Mother
By C.A. Gibbs
An intimate and emotional journey as Gibbs comes to terms with what it really means to let go as a child grows up to live their own authentic life, on their own terms.
The bombshell, delivered shortly after he left for college, left author C.A. Gibbs questioning everything. What was real? Through fear, anxiety, faith, loss, and grief, Gibbs shares the bittersweet journey of discovering that her adult child isn’t—and maybe hasn’t ever been—the person she thought.
