artists, for my next pandemic zine i wanna talk about how covid has affected your art. (‼️by this i do not mean lockdown-era-covid. i mean 2023-covid-times.)

screenshot from my zine. text reads: Something I would like to talk about next issue is how people’s artistic practices have changed since the beginning of the pandemic. For example for me, this includes not knowing how to write about school anymore (normally, I am a writer of novels for teens), or a nebulous ‘present’ that I often used to find myself writing about.

If any artists of any discipline want to respond in like 50-100 words to this, just to give a little overview, I’d love to include that in the zine. If you get it to me by the 17th of Sept (email/tinyletter response is probably best) I’ll put it in.

Rabia made me a meme

a four panel meme. the first panel is a picture of me. the second panel is a cartoon stick figure eating cereal, pointing at me, speech says "they will never write a novel with a gender affirming haircut scene". the third panel is my book, Euphoria Kids. the last panel is the stick figure spitting cereal everywhere in disbelief.
