I spent too long thinking about how a bookplate would fit with the design of “Other Boys” and didn’t want something that clashed, so I went with custom stickers rather than a traditional bookplate using a design of the binder that recurs throughout the book! It perfectly fits on the title page just above the First Second logo. (See pic 2 for how it will fit). I’m really happy with how these bookplates turned out 🥰 Preorder “Other Boys” at Porter Square Books to receive one! (“Other Boys” comes out September 28th) 📚

Join me for the Other Boys launch event in conversation with @ry_la_sa on October 2nd at 4pm ET / 1pm PT! I'm so excited to share my debut graphic novel memoir with you all. 🌈 Limited edition signed & doodled bookplates will be available with preorders with @porter_square_books 📚

My first time seeing a real physical copy of Other Boys!!! It’s so weird seeing it really real after working on it for so long!! It comes out September 28th! Thank you to Robyn and the wonderful team at @01firstsecond for making this book really real!! 🌈✨♥️

Fun fact: I still have many of the toys that are featured throughout my upcoming book Other Boys! This hand-me-down doll has somehow managed to stay in my life all these years! Do you still have any of your childhood toys? Also be sure to pop by @01firstsecond Instagram live tomorrow at 4pm EST / 1pm PST for our comic creators chat!! (Swipe for more info)

12-year-old me is going to be super embarrassed when our diary is released on September 28th. Remember to preorder Other Boys! 😌🌈✨

I used to love playing with paper dolls as a kid, so I made these ones of me AS a kid! I used to draw my own characters and cut them out and play out little adventures with them all the time. You can find this sheet as a printable at DamiAnimated.com/OtherBoys and you can preorder Other Boys wherever books are sold. Coming out September 28th from @01firstsecond 🌈

I’ve been feeling this strange sense of dread lately. Almost as if I’m mourning something and I can’t remember what it is. I feel myself unable to reach out to family and friends, as if I’m subconsciously drifting away. There’s a fear of losing the people I care for but also the feeling that they may no longer care for me. When I was very young if I felt lost or scared I would hide away and hold my favorite doll and let myself cry. I can remember the distinct sound of my tears plopping onto his hollow plastic head and then I’d return to the real world. I haven’t cried in a long time. Maybe I’ll go do that later.

Maybe I should wear my glasses all the time? 🤔

The official publication date for “Other Boys,” my upcoming book, has changed to September 28th! (There were some pandemic related shipment issues). But you can preorder now wherever books are sold.✨🎉

I created this short “Dear Reader” comic for eARC promos but figured I’d share it here too! You can preorder “Other Boys” wherever books are sold! Publishing September 7th. 🌈 A handful of people have also asked about signed copies and I’m currently unable to do so physically but I am working on a signed bookplate promo. More on that soon!

Please don’t beat me up behind the gas station 🙏🏻

I love getting indirectly emotionally destroyed by kindergarteners while thrifting✨ though to be fair I was mostly a 2000s kid 💁🏻‍♂️ I realized I haven’t been posting many comics lately, but I’m still here! I’ve been spending more time building miniatures and working on books lately but I’m hoping to have more comics up soon. Also hi, new followers! 👋🏻✨

I haven’t posted a comic for fun in a while so here’s a new one ✨

✨ cover reveal for my upcoming book @01firstsecond ✨ you can preorder it now wherever books are sold 🌈

Anyone else feeling incredibly socially overwhelmed at the moment? I haven’t been online much lately because the pandemic depression has slammed into my regular depression, causing a head-on collision in my brain. I’m feeling drained all the time and I’ve been focused on taking care of my mental health. 🧠

Back when I still felt comfortable outside near others I liked to draw and watch people pass by, imagining what their lives might be like. And I’d think about how each person was living a unique story.

Just an edited version of a drawing from last year ✨I’m tired of how critical people are of peoples identities (especially within the LGBTQ spectrum) ...just let people live 🤷🏻‍♂️ I haven’t been online much lately because depression but I appreciate all of you! Sorry if I’ve missed your DM or comment! ❤️ I’m just very tired and not feeling all that social.

When I was little I used to sit on the living room floor doodling or playing LEGO while my grandma watched The Golden Girls, so it brings back a lot of memories watching it on Hulu recently. 🍰

💀I just remembered how obsessed I was with Wednesday Addams growing up.

...and yet. 🤷🏻‍♂️
