Pop-Up Pride Issue with Moss Puppy Magazine

VOLUME ONE IS LIVE!

The Minison Project and Moss Puppy Magazine have teamed up to publish a special Pride issue this year!

​Both TMP and MPM were founded by queer little ducks both named Melissa – a coincidence that has both of us excited to collaborate on such a special project. For this collaborative issue, we’d love to showcase writing and artwork by LGBTQIA+ creatives.

This incredible collection of stories and artwork full of life and love and loss will leave you speechless.

Cover art by Laurie Byrd. Print option is HERE!

Thank you to all of our contributors, readers, and supporters!
