Get Your Story Straight is a 288 page Australian graphic novel for young adults.
It follows Henry, a 19 year old trans man out to everyone except his parents back in Horsham, and Cooper, the nonbinary person who has a massive crush on him.
When Henry realises his best shot at accessing top surgery is by faking an engagement to his friend Cooper, he learns it isn’t easy to plan a wedding, even a fake one.
Henry's mum wants to control everything, Henry's dad is convinced that Cooper is a gay man using Henry as a beard, and Henry might be developing feelings for his fake fiancé—and then the Australian Government announces the 2017 Marriage Equality postal survey.
Is the cost of staying closeted worth the pain of coming out? What does a fake wedding mean if you’re not allowed to have a real one? And is a person really torn to pieces by a crocodile in North Queensland every three months?
