What do you think are some hallmarks of queer/lesbian love stories? I can’t imagine this story as a heteronormative romance.
I’d often look back and think “Okay, well, I didn’t like how this part came out, so next time I’ll try this instead…” Once you begin building a body of work, you start understanding the things you’re drawn to. I was fortunate to have a day job at the time where one of my responsibilities was writing comedy scripts under tight deadlines. You balance a super fun light-hearted romp with very realistic character work. Leo’s long-suffering friends were very relatable, as was Leo’s desperate (and often failed) attempts to do right by Vega. What, in your opinion, makes a lesbian decent? The story is centered around the fake dating trope – one of my favorites! Vega says that she wants to see if Leo can be a decent lesbian. Everything else was based on that premise. For ROADQUEEN, it was writing a story where I’d be forced to draw motorcycles. When I embark on a new personal project I try to set a challenge for myself in some way, like working within a new format or genre.
It’s every lesbian fever dream I didn’t know I had put to page! How did you make this absolutely perfect thing? Please enjoy this interview with Mira Ong Chua ( Twitter Instagram): Roadqueen: Eternal Roadtrip to Love takes place in a world in which queer ladies go to school on a mountain via motorbike this amazing creation is indicative of the story as a whole. I was thrilled to ask Mira Ong Chua (they/them) some questions about ROADQUEEN: Eternal Roadtrip to Love, a lesbian fake dating graphic novel that had me laughing out loud.
