Zines are here!
Zines are a really exciting creative outlet. I can push myself in both writing and designing pages. There is no right or wrong way to create a zine. There is the act of creating itself.
braindump 23: Creating Creative Space
In this new braindump I address finding places to create in a space that isn’t optimal for creativity.
New Year, More Zines
Making something out of nothing:
Last September I tabled my first ZineCon in Kansas City, Missouri. I was excited because it took submitting an application and being accepted. I had left the Zine Community in Phoenix when we moved to the heartland and I was a little afraid I wouldn’t find the queers and the outcasts in a place where most of the country’s grain is grown.
Rocking the Mic: Do it for the Hugz
One of my passions is reading/performing poetry, spoken word, the words I write. While delving into the culinary world took me away from the microphone, I’ve finally found my way back.
It’s been a slow re-entry, with an introduction into the modern world of zine life back in 2015, and after having a few pieces published in a Phoenix zine, I decided to step back into Poetry Open Mics.
Poetics in the Park: Braindump #22
I celebrated National Poetry Month in April by recording and sharing “A Poem A Day” on YouTube. For the last few poems, I went out to a lake/park, just for a change of pace. I also decided to make a vlog out in nature.
