Rose Metal is a special piece to me, because it closes the book on a certain narrative style that I had grown into for a while. Through making comics, I learned that you don't need external acceptance of your identity, that you can live your truth without permission from people poisoned with stubborn (and often willful) ignorance towards others around them. Because of Rose Metal and Zenith, I learned to accept and love my identity, and since finishing it I felt that I could move towards narrative styles that not only continue to assert and normalize aspects of my identity, but also explore concepts/ideals along the way more in-depth and with more dimension. Rose Metal was the last step for me in the first part of the process of assertion and self-love, and for that I am grateful to it.

Thank you to everyone who has supported, read, and loved both Rose Metal and Zenith. I hope that you will continue to accompany me on my journey to spread positivity, understanding, healing, and love through my comics and games. Be healthy and well. <3
