SUMMARY:Goat Magic Book Launch Signing with Kate Wheeler
DESCRIPTION:Come celebrate the launch of Goat Magic\, an all ages graphic novel by Seattle-born writer and artist Katie Wheeler! Join the herd and witness the story of Trill\, a goat herder with countryside magic that city sorcerors laugh at\, and Alya\, a princess that was cursed into becoming a goat\, team up to break the curse and fight for peace in the kingdom of Capeya. It’s got magic\, adventure\, romance (yes this is a sapphic goat comic)\, and Big Goat Energy. \n\n\n\n\n\nKatie will be here signing her new graphic novel and chatting with folks from 6 to 8 on Thursday\, August 21st. We’ll have copies of Goat Magic available for purchase! \n\n\n\nAbout Kate Wheeler\n\n\n\nKate Wheeler is a queer\, Seattle-born cartoonist who traded Pacific Northwest rain for the charming canals of Amsterdam\, where she lives with her partner. Her work has been featured in The Washington Post\, NPR\, and The Nib\, among others. \n\n\n\nAbout Goat Magic\n\n\n\nTrill\, a spirited goat herder with a unique ability to communicate with her flock\, yearns for a life beyond mountain pastures. Her “goat magic” feels common compared to the sorcery taught in the city’s prestigious magic schools\, which are off-limits to her. Meanwhile\, Princess Alya\, known as the “Ordinary Princess” and heir to the kingdom of Capeya\, doubts her own royal potential. \n\n\n\nTheir worlds collide when an assassination attempt on the queen leaves Alya cursed to transform into a black goat each sunrise. Seeking refuge in Trill’s goat herd\, Alya discovers her new friend’s hidden talent is her only hope to break the spell. Together\, they embark on a perilous journey back to the castle\, facing treacherous foes and uncovering a web of betrayal and rebellion. \n\n\n\nAs Alya battles to reclaim her throne and restore order to Capeya\, the girls discover a deep connection\, their shared experiences forging an unbreakable bond. When Alya comes face to face with the ones who betrayed her\, will she have what it takes to take back the crown and rule an unstable kingdom? Will Trill find confidence in her magic and the growing affection she has for her friend?

SUMMARY:You Are a Sacred Place: Signing with Madeline Jubilee Saito

We are all part of this natural world\, and we are meant to be here\, and it is good that we are here. Those things can be hard to remember sometimes\, but these delicate comics underline their truth.”  \n\n\n\n— MAIA KOBABE\, author and illustrator of Gender Queer: A Memoir \n\n\n\n“Using a sort of visual 4/4 time signature\, Madeleine Jubilee Saito’s You Are A Sacred Place is a heartfelt song about the state of our planet. In gentle watercolors and sparse colors\, Saito sings to us about love\, loss\, hope\, and our need for one another.”  \n\n\n\n— AIDAN KOCH\, artist and graphic novelist\, author of Spiral and Other Stories \n\n\n\n“Madeleine Jubilee Saito has given us a singular gift. At once gentle and piercing\, spare and profound\, her artistry breaks open hearts\, releasing rivers of love for what is—and grief for what is already lost.”  \n\n\n\n— NAOMI KLEIN\, New York Times bestselling author of Doppelganger

SUMMARY:Of Her Own Design with Nicole Andelfinger
DESCRIPTION:Come and meet Nicole Andelfinger\, local writer and author of new graphic novel Of Her Own Design\, a YA graphic novel about writers block\, crushes\, using strange bardic magics to avoid problems\, you know\, usual teen things! Chat with Nicole and get a signed copy of Of Her Own Design of your own! Plus we’ll have a selection other graphic novels written by Nicole available\, including her adaptation of Francine Pascal’s beloved Sweet Valley Twins. \n\n\n\nThis is a free\, all ages event. Nicole will be at Outsider from 2 to 4; drop by any time during those two hours\, though book supplies are limited so maybe err on the early side! \n\n\n\nMore about Of Her Own Design\, from the publisher: \n\n\n\nIn the small town of Holden\, sixteen-year-old Brie Page has been struggling with a tremendous bout of writer’s block. And that’s a problem. One of many she has\, actually. Parents that constantly fight\, her former best friend/current bully Viv Kinsley\, and the gorgeous new girl Kay Ardiger are causing a bit of stress. Brie used to hide from it all in her own worlds and stories\, but that seems so far away now. Until an unexpected encounter with a mischievous bookseller\, Ambrose Chance\, gives Brie the extraordinary ability to go beyond her problems in life and bury them deep into three new stories. Too bad the whole town of Holden had to get caught up in it too when her stories come to life. Now\, when the most important people in her life are stuck in fantastical tales\, Brie needs to save them by diving into her worlds and facing her worries head-on. Which would be fine…if only she was better at writing endings.

SUMMARY:Unbury Your Gays with Take All of Us
DESCRIPTION:Join local author Natalie Leif for a signing\, reading\, and Q and A about their new novel Take All of Us. If you are a fan of queer YA horror\, this book is for you! You may have noticed that the word “graphic” isn’t in front of “novel”… that’s because it’s a book with only words! It’s Leif’s debut non-graphic novel\, which they developed in part at past Outsider Comics writing gatherings! We are super excited to host them on their Unbury Your Gays book tour\, especially during Pride Month! \n\n\n\nAbout Take All of Us. . .\n\n\n\nFive years ago\, a parasite poisoned the water of Ian’s West Virginia hometown\, turning dozens of locals into dark-eyed\, oil-dripping shells of their former selves. With chronic migraines and seizures limiting his physical abilities\, Ian relies on his best friend and secret love Eric to mercy-kill any infected people they come across.Until a new health report about the contamination triggers a mandatory government evacuation\, and Ian cracks his head in the rush. Used to hospitals and health scares\, Ian always thought he’d die young… but he wasn’t planning on coming back. Much less face the slow\, painful realization that Eric left him behind to die.Desperate to find Eric and the truth before the parasite takes over him\, Ian along with two others left behind—his old childhood rival Monica and the jaded prepper Angel—journey to track down Eric. What they don’t know is that Eric is also looking for Ian\, and he’s determined to mercy-kill him.
