Bunch of really big IRL changes might be happening this fall / spring that could throw a wrench in my plans for getting LoA out the door. A little annoying because delaying more is lame, but life does have a way of being life sometimes 🫠

Proud to be a proactive safe space, helping fellow LGBTQIA+ folx survive and thrive.
As much as we can spare from my patreon, zine's, and upcoming magazine's sales each month go to trans gofundmes, mutual aids, and Queer creators' kofis.
Looking forward to doing even more 💜
