About

This place is a manifestation of my creative brain, treated as a dumping ground for creative activities. Like me, it will always be a work in progress: messy, multi-themed, and only half finished.

The vintage ads in this newspaper take you to pages I've made.

June 2026 Issue

Happy Pride! It's pretty fucking scary right now in many places around the world, so I hope you keep that spirit inside you, whatever it means for you and your community. Sometimes all you need is just a little magic and a reminder that the rainbow is IN YOU, even if you can't show it outside for whatever reason.

Here is a list of poetry that I compiled last year from the book Love is For All of Us which I also included in a webzine. I'm rereading it this year and pulling out my favorites and thinking of making art with them!

I hope you're staying cool and creative whatever's going on around you and enjoying your late spring/early summer transition (or whatever seasons you're in).
