symphonicrevolution asked: will you be doing a second anthology/publication if this one goes well? I just discovered this tumblr and am very interested in this amazing project, but it looks like I came across it a little late.

sixteentons asked: Are you going to post the tumblrs of the other contributors here? I'm really looking forward to getting to know everyone!
Everyone has been notified.
We’ve sent out acceptance/rejection letters, so anyone who submitted should know if they made the cut or not. Can I just say, WOW, there was so much talent, and this was hard. We had to reject so many good creators, but that’s how it goes. Maybe this will be so successful, we’ll do another one.
We’re collecting creator bios now, and we’ll reveal to you all...
Just letting everyone know, acception/rejection...
We want to make sure we get everything done right, rather than rushed, so thank you for your patience. It’ll be very soon.

Submissions Closed: The Waiting Game Begins!
First of all, thank you to EVERYONE who sent us proposals, art and stories. We received over 150 fantastic emails that we now get the pleasure of sorting through!
We will be contacting contributors who have been selected for the book on or about as close to April 30th as we can! From then, folks chosen will have several months to complete their pieces.
Thank you for being patient with us, and...

intergalactickoala asked: I would love to draw something up for this, but... I don't have a whole lot of spare time due to school. When is the deadline for the actual comics? Is there a limited page count? I wanted to know so I could plan it out as practically as possible over the little free time I do have. Also, this project is amazing <33 Even if I don't get to be part of it, I'll definitely try and...
batlesbo asked: Concerning the french artist who was unsure about their english, if there's any frenchies that are picked and want a fluent french/english person to check their texts, I can help :)
Anonymous asked: I don't suppose asexuality is included in this whole thing? I've gotten the whole "asexuals don't exist" stuff before and I hope the more brave of us can be included in this cool thing
Reminder: Deadline for submissions Saturday March...
We don’t need completed pages, just your information, a summary of what your coming out story is, and a sample of your artwork. Spread the word and get those submissions in!
What we’re looking for: true-life LGBT coming out stories in comic book form for an anthology. We want the full queer spectrum represented! You can team up with another artist or writer, but the story must be true....

Anonymous asked: Hi people! I'm a professional artist and comicker, I'm totally queer, I'd like to send you my submission but...I'm french. Is it ok with you anyway, even if my english isn't a 100% accurate, and despite the fact that french people won't have the same outting experience you'd have on the other side of the world? Pu-leeeeease say yes! ^3^

comicsforbreakfast asked: Apologies if I'm getting ahead of myself, but if we send in sample pages before march 31st along with our character designs, etc., are there specs for that yet? Or is that something we will all find out at a later date? Thanks! :D

alekibutt asked: Hi there, I know what you're looking for is nonfiction, but could we add surrealistic elements or maybe even just embelish a little? Sorry it's just that my own personal stories were rather non-eventful/boring. xD;;

Anonymous asked: how many different comics are you hoping to include/how many total pages are you hoping to cover in all?
Anonymous asked: I've already drawn a comic on the subject quite recently. If I were to submit a proposal of that story and you chose it, would the previous comic be okay or would it have to be something completely new.

Anonymous asked: I sent in my submission, but I'm nervous that my summary isn't as long or detailed as you're looking for (or maybe it's too long?). If it's not enough, will I have the opportunity to send in a more in-depth summary, or is it an instant disqualification? (I'm really interested in submitting a comic, I just don't have all the details I want to include in my story...

Anonymous asked: what do you mean "sample of the art"? as in one of the comic pages? or an example of drawing style?
Anonymous asked: Can my submission to "Drawn Out" be about when I first came out to myself? I know that might sound weird, but admitting it to myself was a pretty big hurdle to overcome, and quite frankly, way harder than admitting it to anyone else.
Open Submissions for "DRAWN Out": the LGBTQ+...
It’s one of the scariest/happiest things a queer person can do: come out. Whether bad or good, funny or dramatic, it usually makes for an interesting story, and we want to hear those stories.
Drawn OUTÂ is a comic book anthology of nonfictional coming out stories, and we are looking for submissions. We’re looking for 1-6 page stories in sequential art (comic) form, that revolve around...
