The back and final page of the zine says anyway, that’s my update. Expect more nerding out, artwork sharing, and behind the scenes peeks into how the heck I’m gonna make a business out of this. Remember (and this is written in ironic, lovely calligraphy) zuck and his expensive algorithm dont’ promote deep content about honest self awareness. Sign up for my emails so I can remind you that you matter and it’s possible to do what you enjoy doing, despite all the bull shit in the world. Link’s in the usual place.

I can draw things like thiiiiiissss! A digitally illustrated portrait of a human ranger wearing a cloak, a bow and arrow, with a scar on his head, long black hair with a white streak, brown skin, and a five o clock shadow. The text continues: I’ve got that, holy shit did I just make that! Sparkle. Also, isn’t he pretty? He’s my character in my newest d n d campaign. Again, I promise I’l tell you about the real life d n d adventures in my next post. But like, I already had someone ask to get on my non existent waitlist for commissions, so I’m trying to trust my marketing brain that I might be onto something, you know?

My intention slash plan slash wish is to get back into content creation, writing, and art. I wanna take down my podcast and turn the good episodes into zines, instead. And I wanna make money off my artwork. I re-awakened my inner high school artist persona and now…

Continued text on zine: all while seeing a therapist or two or more. Did you know it’s really hard to find a therapist when you’re already depressed and then your insurance changes? It’s fo fun. I also worked with a psychiatrist on meds to help my brain get back to some version of what it was before my brother died, sprinkle in a lot of tears, journaling, forcing myself to exercise, and making new relationships to replace the ones that turned out to be, well, flaky. It’s rough out here, y’all. Zero out of ten.

This page of the zine has doodles of the various items listed: singing lessons, volunteering at the food bank, board games with strangers, actually, lots of meetups in general with strangers. Learning the pottery wheel (it’s not for me), roller skating classes, playing d n d. An asterisk by d n d with a footnote: omg! Of the many fun and helpful things I did this year, d n d has officially “this best selling novel changed my life moment” helped me. More on that another time!

The next page in the zine says hello! I’m “back” and trying to figure out how to jump back into writing and content creation without defaulting to old habits. Over the last 9 months in between the awful moments I intentionally gave myself space and opportunities to do things I’ve always wanted to do. Things like…

I mean, knives need friends so it makes sense!

I haven't checked recently! Are they only doing individual serrated knives? Or no knives at all?

Maybe check thrift stores! They've usually got lots of silverware

We can want good things for people we don’t know. We can offer support and love to strangers. We don’t have to be the extreme insane weirdos that a whole lot of people seem to aspire to be. Anyway, carry on.

Today, listening to a self help book helped me escape from things out of my control and focus back on what I can do for myself. It's tough to be all go gettem when things seem bleak but today it was helpful to pretend I'm only responsible for myself.

Gamifying it sounds good! Stretch those writing muscles! Personally I'm playing with the idea that newsletters don't necessarily need to be long form writing, but I don't know what that means specifically yet 🤷🏻‍♀️

Definitely leaning into email newsletter format. My brain is trained to think of social media format so translating video and carousel thinking into medium/long form writing has been interesting.
