Works

Up and Out

Up and Out was started in May 2013,^[9] but it wasn't until October 2016^[10] that her comic series began to focus on experiences specific to her transition. She originally intended for her autobiographical comics to remain unreleased, but she saw her online following for gag comic strips as a chance to raise awareness about the experience of transgender individuals.^[5] Her comics also aim to provide content for transgender individuals and others questioning their gender identity to connect with.^[11] The comics share her major milestones as a trans woman, while also documenting her moments of insecurity and self-doubt.^[12]^[13] The three-panel comics cover a variety of topics, such as the experience of being misgendered and undergoing hormone replacement therapy, while utilizing a range of tones from comedic to serious.^[10]

Kaye's comic is updated every Thursday on her website and various social media accounts that include Tumblr, Instagram, and Twitter. She originally started posting the comic on her Twitter in July 2016. The comic was first posted on Instagram in October 2016.^[14]

Super Late Bloomer: My Early Days in Transition

Kaye's first collection of comics was released on May 1, 2018.^[15]^[16] The comics tell her story through her first year on hormone replacement therapy and her social, physical, and mental changes during that time.^[16]

Publishers Weekly called it "blunt yet precise; straightforward but nuanced; simple but beautiful. ... Kaye skillfully and effectively relates the daily indignities borne by trans women and the triumphs and quiet joys as well. Her tenacity in this hopeful story will be resonant for readers going through personal transitions of many kinds."^[16]

My Life in Transition: A Super Late Bloomer Collection

Kaye's second collection of comics was released on February 1, 2021.^[17] They follow Julia's life now three years into her transition journey.^[16]
