SPECTRUM – A Cartoon (mostly) about Neurodivergence and Queerness

guest post by Erin Fitzgerald (a.k.a. A Girl Named Earl) I started drawing comics quite by accident. In 2016, I attended Lynda Barry’s Writing the Unthinkable workshop at the Omega Institute in Rhinebeck, New York. I did not go there to learn comics. That was not my intention or my goal. I went there to get out of my comfort zone, get some good creative energy, and work on some writing. And while all of those things did happen (especially the part about the comfort zone), they turned out to be only a small part of my experience there. The… Read More

Alice Jaggers talks with Elizabeth Trembley about her recent book, Look Again. Her memoir follows her various versions of her experience finding a dead body in the woods and the mental companions she has along the way. Both Alice and Beth have experienced trauma, which influences their discussion on the weirdness of trauma, how finicky memory can be, what it means to have a safe space violated, and the importance of using art (especially comics) to heal. After this interview was recorded, Beth hosted Drawing Together (link below)! Elizabeth Trembley’s Bio: Beth grew up knowing herself to be a kid who… Read More

The Drawing Together community convened again on Sunday, October 30. Our session was led by Elizabeth A. Trembley, a Lambda Literary award-winning mystery writer who now tells her stories in comics. Her new graphic memoir Look Again explores the fragmenting nature of trauma by tracing the convoluted evolution of her own story through six variations of the same event. Elizabeth has a PhD in literature from the University of Chicago, and currently works for the Sequential Artists Workshop. She lives in West Michigan with two big dogs, two cats, a collection of Batman toys, and her episcopal priest wife. She walks in the… Read More

guest post by Caroline Jones  The words “You have breast cancer” may be some of the hardest you’ll ever hear about your health. My graphic memoir/health guide book has anecdotal and evidence-based tips about getting through treatment and maintaining your health after treatment has concluded. Readers have told me this illustrated format is a less-scary way of talking about breast cancer. That is my purpose – to try to make something incredibly scary and anxiety-provoking a little easier to bear as well as provide some tools and ideas to help you heal.   My greatest wish is to find a… Read More

guest post by London-based comic creator, consumer and collector R.E. Burke. R.E. reviews comics for BrokenFrontier.com and has a particular interested in all things small-press and indie in the comic-sphere. Over the last few years, I have been making comics about the secrets I had previously held onto and decided that they do not need to be secrets anymore. This has led to an array of autobiographical comics: about period pain, quitting my day-job, and my struggles surrounding sex. I am sharing these secrets as keeping them inside has led to feelings of isolation and loneliness that I hope I… Read More
