Hi Allyson—just wanted to say, I just had top surgery this past week am deeply appreciating your reflections and willingness to share and think in public. It is a balm and is also helping me as I’m thinking, integrating, healing. Thank you!

Hi Eliot. What a beautiful message to receive. I’m so happy that my posts are landing and helpful. That is my dream. There is more to come. Good luck with your surgery. Big 🤗
What an incredibly articulate and experiential representation of your top surgery. It was emotionally intense but tempered with informed research. I felt comfortably schooled by the freefall of definitions as they floated through the frames. The graphics are truly astounding and the watercolour saturation in the final frame was exquisite. Damn fine Allyson. Thank you.
Allyson, I hope your journey as depicted and written here in this gorgeous graphic 'future novel' or simply as is will be shared widely and published.....Otherwise, I have such a deep respect for you and love in the best way as a former student in life and graphic narratives....I think of you often as a great light on my path regardless of our differences. xx
Oh em goddess. Thank you for this sweet feedback. It means so much to me. You taught me everything I know. Love you so much and miss you. Xoxoxo
Thank you honest o. I just ate the last muffin you gave me yesterday. Xo
