MariNaomi has been building a loyal following with her poignant, tightly-written and cleanly illustrated autobiographical comics since she began her self-published Estrus Comics (1998-2009). Her work has been included in over sixty anthologies and consistently featured on numerous websites, including Truth-out, XOJane, Buzzfeed, LA Review of Books, and The Rumpus.

Turning Japanese is the highly anticipated follow-up to MariNaomi's 2015 Eisner Award nominated Dragon's Breath and Other True Stories, and her 2012 SPACE Prize-winning collection, Kiss & Tell: A Romantic Resume Ages 0-22, published by Harper Perennial.

MariNaomi's work has been widely praised by prominent reviewers and publications, from Douglas Wolk of The New York Times to Publishers Weekly.

"MariNaomi is a true original." - Armistead Maupin, author of Tales of the City.
