Cartoon Saloon adaptation of Julián Is a Mermaid!
I'm teaching a free, virtual class on writing for different age categories with the Orange County Library System on Monday. There will be charts to explain young adult vs. new adult vs. adult fiction. Maybe a venn diagram (but no promises): attend.ocls.org/event/15707999
Boosting this because there are still 40+ items with no bids, including some real gems (a 1-hour AMA with kt literary founder Kate Testerman???). Your donations go directly to supporting concrete efforts to diversify the publishing industry: www.32auctions.com/organization...
Every year for Pride, I repost Hue. I made him to send love and comfort to those who feel Pride isn’t for them because they aren’t out. You matter, you are valid, and it’s ok if you aren’t ready yet. Coming out is not a requirement for being part of this community. Happy Pride 🌈

To anyone reading this - we are ACTIVELY SEEKING someone to cover indie comics as a regular beat...but everyone is making 15 minute videos now and it's hard to get them to put down the camera. I get that we need both platforms.
Anyway who wants to write about comics, DM me.
