Happy National Coming Out Day

[kybearfuzz]

I was planning on doing some work on my comic book tonight, but decided to have a little random drawing fun instead.


It's so good to be OUT!
I've not had to come out to anyone in a good while. Most of the family I deal with know, a lot of my coworkers know (or suspect or have figured it out), even a neighbor has eventually come to the conclusion. Coming out was never so nerve-wracking as it was the first time with someone I cared about. I recounted the story of coming out to my sister Rhonda years ago. Instead of re-typing the events, I'll just post the link below for anyone new to my journal since then:

Coming Out for the First Time

A really wonderful 'toon tribute to NCOD ! - love the concept and the costume - especially the colors you picked...heliotrope & magenta are big favorites of mine and the grey makes an elegant foil. Y'know, I'm not sure I've ever seen the triangle (usually pink) done with rainbow colors - I like the combination a lot....it's transformational symbolism when you think about it: from oppression to triumph. Kudos !!
