Development and publication history
Thrash wrote Honor Girl over the span of two years.[2] While their previous experience was in writing prose rather than graphic novels, a roommate encouraged them to use the latter form for this particular story. Thrash was interested in the possibilities offered by depicting themself visually and began practising drawing so that they could pursue the graphic format.[3]
Candlewick Press published Honor Girl on September 8, 2015.[4]
