Devon’s Diary: The True Account of a Fictional Life

by punkmouse

A 6-part gritty, erotic tone poem taking place in the 1990’s NYC queer scene (and inspired by true events), “Devon’s Diary” follows a young artist’s darkly-comedic downward spiral initiated by her mother’s death — and the subsequent request by her girlfriend to open their previously monogamous relationship. Incapable of coping with her pain, Devon’s only method of dealing with it is by self-medicating — and her only way of trying to make sense of it is by turning it into “art.”
