This is my new pinned post. Hi, I’m Lilah! I write comics and I am transgender and sometimes those things intersect, as in my OGN Girl Haven, which is a trans coming-of-age story/portal fantasy! I love my wife and my daughters and also cats and capybaras.

For me, 2026 is going to be a year of building community with other queer folks and especially other transfeminine creatives. Let’s be friends!

A Ukrainian woman once told me, “In Ukraine, you would be considered attractive.” Still not sure how to take that.
Forget insults, what’s the most unhinged *compliment* you’ve ever received?

I wrote a DC comics character in a way that I guess didn’t line up with how someone remembered that character from when they were young so they said that I had skullfucked their childhood.

The most devastating thing that ever happened to me was when I said something to my wife that I thought was hilarious and she paused for a second, confused, and then finally said—without a hint of irony—“oh, you were trying to be *funny*”

You ever do an emoji that just isn’t quite right and then it’s out there and it’s just an emoji so you’re not going to say anything about it but you know it’s the wrong one and it bugs you?
