This book is aimed at anyone who wants to learn about asexuality, as well as ace people, to validate their experiences. Asexuality is often referred to as "The Invisible Orientation." It is not taught in schools and you don't hear about being “ace” on television. Thus, it is difficult to be ace in a society so steeped in sex that no one knows you exist. Too many young people grow up believing that their lack of sexual desire means they are broken – which is why author Molly Muldoon and illustrator Will Hernandez, members of the ace community, are here to shed light on society's misconceptions about asexuality and what it really means to be ace. Asexuality is a real identity, and it’s time for the world to recognize it. No more invisible!
Molly Muldoon is a former explorer and book seller, now a librarian and author, and always enthusiastic about demisexual fanfiction. Her works include The Cardboard Kingdom, Dead Weight: Murder at Camp Bloom, and the upcoming The Cardboard Kingdom: Roar of the Beast. Despite traveling for the past ten years, she currently lives in Portland, Oregon with her ridiculous cat, Jamie McKitten.
Will Hernandez is a lifelong artist, and this is his first piece as a comic creator and co-writer. Although he is a passionate storyteller and designer, Will is also on an endless journey of discovery, seeking to learn more about the world and, in turn, about himself. Through the ups and downs, he has discovered that he is on the asexual spectrum, growing increasingly interested in the role of sexuality and gender in society, and loving the culture it creates.
