6/21: A Year of Liebe!
LIEBESTRASSE sale on my website as we approach the one-year anniversary in print!
LIEBESTRASSE is ON SALE in my webstore FOR PRIDE!
Support queer artists directly:
The graphic novel is priced at $17.99 for this sale (normally $19.99). Includes shipping and the original short story zine version of LIEBESTRASSE from Thought Bubble in 2018! Only 40 copies left of this special little self-published life-changing moment.
It’s really hard to believe how fast this year has gone!
On June 15th last year, we had a pre-release party for LIEBESTRASSE (on my birthday)! I was wise enough to hire Gustavo Monroy to capture the event with his wonderful photography and I finally posted a bunch of those photos on Instagram that you can find here:
We have been so grateful for all the support of this book for the past 12 months!!! And I’m going to be selling this book for the rest of my life… which is an honor. I am proud beyond words of the work the entire team did and the mind-blowing response from so many kind readers. People have connected with this story in a meaningful way that I could have never imagined as we were working on it.
If you haven’t read LIEBESTRASSE yet— consider buying from my store, or your local bookshop, or reading/requesting it at your local library! Libraries and their amazing staff have been a massive part of this book’s success and every new library that gets this graphic novel on the shelves is a gateway to new readers. Library support is vitally important to any writer’s career (or in this case, an entire creative team!) and I’m so glad so many smart librarians are connected with our graphic novel.
Response for TRICK PONY has been equally wonderful and I’ve done a bunch of fun interviews to support it!
Byron O’Neal has been another great supporter of my writing and had me on the CRYTPID CREATOR CORNER of COMIC BOOK YETI for a great podcast interview. You can listen here!
Additionally, Luke Henderson wrote a really insightful review of our GN for COMIC BOOK YETI here.
Back in March, I did an interview on YouTube for Nerds Rule the World. It was a lot of fun and Heather was a really thoughtful interviewer!
Matt Kamen gave us a really thoughtful review of TRICK PONY in Gayming Mag that perfectly understands everything I hope the book with accomplish with readers.
(And Matt was kind enough to conduct a wonderful interview for GAYMING Magazine about LIEBESTRASSE and TRICK PONY. Part 1 can be found here.)
And there’s more as we all eagerly await the print edition! Hopefully, I’ll have news to share about that soon! 🤞
And speaking of PRIDE… I returned to discuss the DC PRIDE 2023 anthology with the Gotham Outsiders! Link to Spotify here! So much fun with hosts TJ and Chris as well as fellow panelist S.W. Sondheimer!
My story in DC PRIDE 2022 was just re-released in this beautiful hardcover and you can find it wherever comic books and graphic novels are sold!
I have confirmed one more convention appearance before the end of 2023: Flame Con!!!
Last week, editorial client (and friend) James Tynion IV announced that Tiny Onion Studios is a key sponsor for Flame Con and we’ll be tabling together as a collective of creative! I’m genuinely proud of all the hard work James is doing and how wonderful he has been to elevate his peers (and include me among their numbers).
Tate Brombal, Isaac Goodhart, and Nick Robles will all be in town to sign copies of THE ODDLY PEDESTRIAN LIFE OF CHRISTOPHER CHAOS and promote the book’s launch!
I’ll be at the booth helping out and selling LIEBESTRASSE with our free promo posters!
…and we’ve got really fun surprises in the works with CHRISTOPHER CHAOS for the show!!!
Flame Con is August 12 & 13 in midtown Manhattan!
…still waiting to hear about Artist Alley tables at NYCC… that will be the final show of the year if I get accepted with a table spot!
Thanks so much for reading!
