Lil Miss Hot Mess is the author of the children’s book The Hips on the Drag Queen Go Swish, Swish, Swish, which was released in May 2020 based on her song that she’s been singing at DQSH events across the country.  Known for her activism and high-concept performances, she also helped lead the #MyNameIs campaign against Facebook’s so-called “real names” policy and has performed everywhere from San Francisco’s legendary worker-owned bar The Stud to Stanford University, SF MOMA, and Saturday Night Live.
Michelle Tea is the author of over a dozen books for children and adults, including the PEN Award-winning Against Memoir. They are the creator of cultural interventions such as Sister Spit, Mutha Magazine, and Drag Queen Story Hour.
