well, it’s done.

I have finished the apocalypse.

The Zine of the Apocalypse, inspired by the turning of the b’ak’tun in the Mayan calendar last December. I’ll have full versions available at Zine Fest this year. You can check out the first half here on my blog.

And check out the Playlist for the Apocalypse! I created a YouTube channel for my art stuff.

yep. zine’ing again.

I *LOVE* having free time to zine and play with my stamps and scissors and glue and stuff.

Tonight I’m working on the covers for an off-shoot – a spore, if you will – of TheZINEsaurus … SPARKS, a pART of my FOUR MOONS STUDIO …

I’ve compiled a couple of adult poems I’ve written and some images to go with them. I’ll be reading them at the Dirty Zine Reading in September. There will be some copies for purchase there that night and at the 2013 ABQ Zine Fest. If you can’t make it to Albuquerque for either of these events, and you want a copy of the zine, message me and we’ll exchange PayPal and addresses.  And, eventually, I’ll have an etsy store for my FOUR MOONS STUDIO, and you’ll be able to order copies of my zine there.

I was at work last night, working. (night nurse) And I while I was in a patient’s room, I thought of one of my stories that would make a FANTASTIC zine!!! And I thought at the time, I should go write that down, so that I can remember it later, when I’m needing inspiration.

And, after I left the room, not only did I forget to write it down, I have also forgotten the story idea.

Fiddle. (or other expletive you wanna put in here)

If it was that great of an idea, it should come back around.

Hopefully.

Happy Lammas!

Today is mid-summer. Truly. We are halfway through summer, celestially speaking. Today(ish) is the cross quarter between summer solstice and autumnal equinox.

I think of it as The Feast of Sunflowers and/or First Harvest. Gardens are overflowing. Hopefully, your life is overflowing with abundance of growth, happiness, contentment, peace, change, permanence, love, and all the beauty that Life has to share with us.

I know a bank where the wild thyme blows,
Where oxlips and the nodding violet grows,
Quite over-canopied with luscious woodbine,
With sweet musk-roses and with eglantine.

Today, I’m working on finishing my Apocalypse zine. Zine Fest is upon us!!! October 4-6. So I’m trying to finish up my half-done zines for my table there. If all goes as planned – and we all know how that goes – then I’ll have 4 completed full size zines, 1 mid-size zine, and 3 mini-zines. I’m proud of myself.
