We’ve been keeping this one under our hat, but I’m delighted we can finally shout far and wide that it’s happening! It’s incredible to me that the kind of formative queer webcomic that felt only possible online when I was a youth will now be on bookstore and library shelves 💖

I can't believe I got to be part of The Napkin Project over at @esquire. esquire.com/entertainment/bo…

(Re)Introducing The Napkin Project

Sixteen years after the series last appeared in our pages, we sent cocktail napkins to ten writers we love. Here are the short works of fiction they wrote on them.

A school isn’t just a building. It is a place for discovery and asking questions. A place for sharing, for helping, and for community. Happy book birthday to @MrSchuReads and @VeronicaJArt and their triumphant new picture book, THIS IS A SCHOOL🧑‍🎓👏
