This was a tough one to represent succinctly... the weight of the words the first time you heard them spoken aloud to you... it was tough. At the time, the probability that you were going to die once infected was high. What is a relatively insignificant question today was pretty intense at the time. High anxiety.

Trevor and Matt hide secret lives and desires while staring down high school, the stupid jerks around them, and the epidemic of AIDS in the 80s. The boys face intolerance to create acceptance, find community, and love in this YA series.
Workshop'd at the Oxford creative writing summer program, writer and artist Tim Fish (co-creator of LIEBESTRASSE, nominated for a GLAAD Media Award for Outstanding Comic and a Tripwire Award for Best Graphic Novel) delivers a look back to offer some hope.
