4 Fangirling-Worthy Webcomics With Central F/F Romance (That Are Also Available In Print!)
Ladies who love ladies are amazing.
So, as it's Pride Month, and I'm a Queer lady who loves the nerdy things in life, I think it's time we celebrate some central F/F relationships, don't you?
This short list of comics features romantic relationships ranging from the sexy to the innocent, and ladies who have their own unique personalities and situations.
Available to read online (for free!) or in printed form, let these ladies bring a little love to your lives!

Comics Wrap-Up - One More Off-Key Anthem
I don't know whether you've noticed lately, but these comics wrap-ups are less thorough than they used to be - but don't panic! That's on purpose.
It was getting to the point where I was trawling things formulaically and obsessing over not missing anything.
So I figured I'd take it back to basics - sharing comics-related stuff I found awesome or funny or whatever over the course of the week! 😎

Month in Review(s) - April 2018
April... ha, so, what's May lookin' like? 😅
April happened. I lived through it *starts singing I'm still standing by Elton John and doing an incredibly embarrassing dance.*
My grandmother is still in hospital - she went in at the beginning of March - but she's definitely improving. We're basically waiting for a social care package in place so that she can go home, because there's no way my 88-year-old grandfather can take care of her.
And on the last day of April my laptop - which had been hanging on on a wing and a prayer, granted - gave up the ghost.
On the plus side, I reached over 3k Twitter followers in April! I love you guys, really! XD

Month in Review(s) - March 2018
March. Ah, March.
There was some good, incredible, awesome stuff - like a Fall Out Boy concert last week (completely awesome!) and hitting 200k page-views on Dora Reads (I LOVE YOU MY NERDLETS!!!) - but there was also a lot of stress, worry, Anxiety, etc.
There's a lot of personal stuff going on atm, including my grandmother being in hospital since the beginning of the month - and thanks so much for your support my dearest nerdlets! You rock, and I can't tell you how much I appreciate it!
March, for yours truly, was one of those months with too much trouble, and too little time to deal with it.
