In the same week someone asked why I had to be “so loud” about my identity, a 13yo South Asian girl told me my book helped her come out to her mom.
So yes, I’ll be loud as hell about it. Thank you for putting Messy Roots loud and proud back on the Indie Bestseller List again!

📢 I’m looking for a comics colorist who can work in a painterly / picture-book style! This would be paid work to color sample pages for my next pitch, with the possibility of working on the book in the future.
Pls drop your contact & some sample art if interested! ✨
