Trying Human Wiki

★ Welcome to the Trying Human Wiki! ★
 Trying Human is a sci-fi/romance webcomic series created, written and illustrated by Emy Bitner. First published on June 1st, 2008, Trying Human follows the interwoven experiences of Rose Marie Williams, a modern-day receptionist in New York City and Phillis Lennox, a 1947 military translator, as their lives are suddenly transformed by the revelation of extraterrestrial life. As they become slowly entangled into the web of Government secrecy and alien-filled conspiracy — while meeting a whole menagerie of alien life along the way — their lives start to converge as the two women try to figure it all out with over half a century between them. Much of Trying Human's story, characters and events are directly influenced and inspired by traditional Ufology lore.
As Trying Human will eventually comprise thirty-two chapters within eight volumes and features a large cast over a long period of time. The aim of this Wiki is to be an inclusive, clear and accessible point of reference for new, returning and long-time fans alike.
