Sf Zinefest 2022 was a week ago, I'm late. It was the first irl showing/selling of my work. I made a bunch of collages and poems and printing mistakes. I stayed up late for weeks in a frenzy working on things and reworking things. Then got to go to SF with my bffs and eat and play and meet other incredible zine folk who share the vision. And the whole time I felt the care and support of my friends and my love. Would not have b3en possible without my #1 zine mentor/artistic genius @carmenvirginiajohns . Thanks to bestie/collaborator @christiandolly for her illustrations. Really grateful and suprised to be making so much art and community. Much more to come! *DM me if you want a copy of anything!!

Had the pleasure of featuring one of my oldest friends and her art! A new video series I’m starting called, Getting By, which shows how young people are making it in this world and what matters to them. This is the first of many!

by Amara Norman My mom wants grandchildren. And somehow, that’s my responsibility? I understand the impulse and I want to deliver on my end of the hereditary deal, but I’m worried… about everything…
