When I Was Me Anthology
When I Was Me: Moments of Gender Euphoria is a 96-page anthology of single page autobiographical comics, co-edited by Eve Greenwood and Alex Assan and published by Quindrie Press.
The collection features works by over 70 artists, writers and illustrators with a wide range of gender identities, ages, and backgrounds, focusing on the joyful and euphoric experiences of being transgender.
The campaign to fund the anthology's printing was completed successfully through Kickstarter in December 2021. 50% of all sales is donated to organisations that support young trans people in the UK.
The book was the winner of Broken Frontier’s 2021 Award for Best One-Shot Anthology. It is also included in the V&A Lavender Labels exhibition in Dundee.
When I Was Me is currently out of stock as a printed copy, but is available for purchase as a PDF.
