Yay! My book Freak Show has a new baby sister! Actor/writer/comedian Jeffrey Self has a Young Adult book Drag Teen coming out this month about a teenage drag queen who’s trying desperately to get out of his boring backwater Florida town. The publisher, Scholastic, describes the book as:
A fantastic, fabulous, funny YA debut from Jeffery Self, one of the gay icons of the YouTube generation, that follows one high school student on a drag race to his future
The plot?
Debut YA author Jeffery Self takes us on a road trip with an insecure high school senior who has one goal: to be the first in his family to leave Clearwater, Florida, and go to college. The problem is, he has zero means of paying for school — until his friends convince him to compete in a drag teen competition for a college scholarship.
Hopefully, we can get him to the WOW studios to have a little tete-a-tete about the inspiration and writing of this soon-to-be classic!
