How the minicomics project started

The first idea for a minicomic finished ass number 3, because I kept scribbling comic style explanations on napkins and pieces of scrap paper to make people understood my queer non-binary identity. LGBTQ was like a checklist, where I could tick every single box. I figured having a tiny booklet to give to people would be much faster, than explaining again and again. Nothing got faster, but the comic became a means of communication with other queer, trans and non-binary people. The recognized themselves in my comics. The minicomics also date to the time they were created. Language and perspectives may change and there will be more minicomics to come.
