My Fairy Godfather

    (Fantagraphics, 2024)

Set in Liberal, Kansas, a teenager moves in with her gay, film geek Godfather and his partner who run the Starlite movie theater, a safe haven for their eccentricities and artistic yearnings. My Fairy Godfather tells a story about how music and film connect us to who we’ve loved, who we’ve been, and who we are becoming—and that lying beneath the façade of teenage cynicism is the profound desire to be understood and loved.
