Dive into The Dykonic Handbook by breakout star Amy Spalding, offering an authentic, hilarious, and necessary guide to navigating and celebrating queer identity. This book is designed for anyone at any stage of their queerness, from those newly questioning to those proudly out, aiming to help you live your best queer life and become absolutely DYKONIC.

The term DYKONIC (dye-KON-ik) is an informal slang portmanteau of 'dyke' and 'iconic,' signifying someone exceptionally iconic within lesbian, sapphic, or queer culture, embodying a bold, confident, or culturally resonant queer identity.

• Practical guidance on coming out and traversing online spaces, including managing TikTok comments.
• Exploration of queer dress history and advice on building a personal lesbian capsule wardrobe.
• Hilarious, anonymous stories to settle nerves related to sexual experiences.
• Strategies for finding community and navigating the infamous lesbian web.
• Heartfelt advice from sapphic elders and answers to frequently asked questions from followers.

Authored by Amy Spalding, known from BBC's I Kissed a Girl, this handbook draws from her own messy journey and provides the wisdom of a self-described lesbian big sister.
