Excited to be presenting at ICAF in San Diego in a couple weeks! I’ll be presenting a comic and accompanying essay I wrote for a collection called Norm-critical Perspectives in Comics, edited by Robert Aman and Lars Wallner (Linköping University). This mixed text-based and graphic essay is called “Transmasculine ‘Girlhood’ in Graphic Memoir”. I’ll also be bringing copies of the accompanying zine “Studies in Girlhood” to the session as well for interested parties. See info below!
