December 2, 2009: At the lighting of the Christmas tree in Rockefeller Center, the Muppets sing “It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year” (and argue about Cinco de Mayo food vs. Christmas food)
Pre-orders for the Muppet Pride Zine "The Lovers, The Dreamers, & You" are NOW OPEN! 🥳
This zine showcases the work of 64 artists and 10 writers, with all profits going to two LGBT charities. I'm so proud that I got to be a part of this project as a writer! So much work and love went into making this zine. Pre-orders open from now until January 1st!
So this is a bit outside of my usual prawnposting, but as a queer Muppet fan, I want to share a project that I've been honored to be a part of for the past few months. It's The Muppet Pride Zine: The Lovers, The Dreamers, and You! Yaaaaay!! *happy Kermit flails* And pre-orders are opening December 1st!!
This zine showcases the work of 64 artists and 10 writers, with all proceeds going to LGBT charities. I contributed as a writer, and (since I'm not just obsessed with Spanish prawns, but with 50-year-old stoner musicians as well) I wrote a Zoot/Lips fic that takes place during the Muppet Show era. It's called "B-Natural," and here's the summary:
Zoot has always expressed himself through his sax rather than words, so when an incomprehensible trumpeter joins the band, the only way they can communicate with each other is through their music. But this leads to them forming a deeper connection than either of them would've thought.
And I'm able to share a snippet of the fic too!
I'm really proud of the work I did on this, and I'm blown away by all the talent contained in this zine. This is something you won't want to miss! I'll be sure to post more info when pre-orders open. In the meantime, please spread the word!
