Before Patricia Highsmith was a great American author, she wrote comic books, which she hated. She was also a prolific womanizer but put herself through gay conversion therapy. Somehow this led her to write a world-changing work of lesbian fiction, "Carol" https://t.co/iW5Vw4MGLW

Events so nice, I planned them... four times! See you there! https://t.co/zXq3ATyxCO

[Grace Ellis @gracecellis]

"Diana and the Hero's Journey" is my new book, and it's out October 4! I don't say this lightly: This book is very close to Lumberjanes in tone, so if you like Lumberjanes, you'll love this one.

This SATURDAY, AUGUST 19 we'll be hosting double Eisner-award-winning writer Grace Ellis in store from 2-4! Stop by to meet Grace and get a signed copy of her latest graphic novel, Flung Out of Space!

[Grace Ellis @gracecellis]

If you haven't read Flung Out of Space yet, I hope this is a reminder to pick it up! It's a unique and wonderful story about a unique and terrible person, and I hope this award shines a path forward for more fallible characters, particularly fallible women.

[Grace Ellis @gracecellis]

Thrilled beyond words that Flung Out of Space has won an Eisner Award! Thank you thank you thank you, especially to my co-creator @HannahTempler. I'm endlessly lucky to have collaborated with someone so brilliant and interesting and generous and even luckier to call you my friend

[Grace Ellis @gracecellis]

Another massive thank you to the team at @ABRAMSbooks: editors @marikotamaki and @sgtgreenbomb, cover designer @andreacecelia, and the rest of the Surely team. Your support of this book has made all the difference.

Last day for Eisner voting! If you're eligible, I hope you'll consider voting for Flung Out of Space for Reality-Based Work and Best Writer! That book means a lot to me, and I hope it means a lot to you too https://t.co/hO9tto8X8X

[Grace Ellis @gracecellis]

Absolutely floored for "Flung Out of Space" to be nominated for two Eisner Awards! Best Reality-Based Work and Best Writer!

Feeling incredibly grateful and humbled to be considered among such esteemed company!

[Grace Ellis @gracecellis]

This is so masterful, absolutely one of the most riveting things I've seen in a long time. Highly recommended for anyone interested in character examinations and in artistic meta layers. Excellent work from everyone involved, wow https://t.co/Ce1UQOuEw7

[Grace Ellis @gracecellis]

If you're an Eisner voter, I hope you'll consider voting for "Flung Out of Space." These two categories are absolutely stacked (like I said: humbled), but I do hope that "Flung Out of Space" resonates with you and would be honored if you considered voting for it!

[Grace Ellis @gracecellis]

Obviously all credit is due to @HannahTempler, @sgtgreenbomb, and @marikotamaki for being willing to launch themselves off a cliff with me in the creation of this book

[Grace Ellis @gracecellis]

More later, but the show went super, super well

[Grace Ellis @gracecellis]

My new play "Explicit Content for Teens" is going out into the world today! This show has it all: an audience vote between two endings, a fictional play-within-a-play about a 1950s party, and a real folk song with lyrics that will make you say "is THAT what that song is about??"

[Grace Ellis @gracecellis]

Impeccable timing on this article: If the question of what content is appropriate for high schoolers to stage is one you're interested in (like "Explicit Content for Teens" is interested in it), this is a great primer on the state of affairs https://t.co/Am22onIW69

“Most of the kids, though, their response to being told they couldn’t look at something was to seek it out and find a way to experience it. So, the question becomes ... how do you collectively decide what is appropriate for kids? And should you?”
