Roll for Zine is back

…and apparently that meant it was time for me to make another spooky mini! Last season, I crafted “Riding Roller Coasters with Vincent Price” in episode 2, and — now that the first episode of Season 2 of Roll for Zine has officially hit the ‘Tube — I can premiere my newest zine, a monster mini all about Mothman. This zine highlights a little bit of what is new for this Season: I’m only making zines and one of the Genre prompts is an Idea Jar full zine topics I’ve been wanting to tackle. And me-oh-my did that pay off: I am over the moon about this zine, and am certain I wouldn’t have made it if it weren’t for the prompts pressuring me to include a doodle or print it on green paper or typewrite all the text. Rolling the dice to make your zine is a form of creative magic, lemme tell ya!

Wanna get in on the fun? Need a jolt of inspiration, some prompts to start creating? Click thru to download the game sheet, print it off, grab your dice, and get rolling. Oh, and if you do DIY, I’d love if you tagged me in the video or post! I wanna see what zines you roll!

Still confused as to what the hell I’m talking about? Give the full series playlist a watch:

Welcome to June, friends! Summer has been creeping up on me (it finally reached “close the windows and turn on the AC” weather), but its still nice enough out that I can enjoy my coffee and morning reads on the front porch. Lounging in my papasan chair and reading a great book or zine really sets me up for having a good rest of my day. Anyways, May was a big month for me! It felt blissfully long, and it was full of soul-nourishing moments. Here are a handful of the highlights that come to mind: 🌸🍓🐛 the garden The old adage about April showers bringing May flowers felt radiantly true […]

I’m launching a printed newsletter, and the first issue is all about embracing snail energy. Why? Well, it took me over a year to finally put the plan of writing a newsletter into action, so embracing the steady, slow pace of my favorite shelled creature felt fitting. I’m absolutely stoked on how issue one turned out, and I don’t think I would be able to say that if I had blustered my way through making this happen back when I had the idea many months ago. My zine projects need time to marinate. (I also had to work out some kinks in the process; a New Year newsletter that I sent […]
