Description:

The Weird & Wonderful Surviveries of Squid Horse is a comic book about defying multiple, hidden challenges and daring to tell one’s story as a fish out of the water creative in a norm-core world refusing to believe you exist. Shortlisted for The Selfies Award 2025 for general non-fiction.

37 self-contained yet interwoven colourful short stories, based on the unique (yet relatable) lived experiences of a British-born Chinese, trans, neurodivergent artist. Recommended for ages 14+.

Dialling in from the swamp of the model-minority myth, this adorable huddle of fragments features interactions with Chinese parents, awkward 90s goth teen times, romance, aliens and cats. Muddling through mental health journeys, playful, subversive moments and friends in unexpected places. #cosytrauma

Content notes: This book explores various traumas affecting mental health including discrimination, racism and sexual violence.

The audiodescribed comic book is coming in 2025.
