Just a wee bit overwhelmed, exhausted and lost.

So I decided to try and do some art to work it out. So I brain dumped on a page. Just dumped out everything that I thought might make me feel just a smidge better.

Then I made it into a zine. Which I have decided to share with you here.

It’s a one sheet 8 page mini zine. The inside (poster) side of the sheet shows my personal desk pets enjoying a lovely cup of bottle cap soup! Side note: The books they are leaning against hold up my monitor to a nice and proper viewing height.

Here is a diagram of how to fold and cut it. OK, so I looked up the diagram after I made the zine. I took a scrap of paper and folded up a mock up and numbered it. My page numbers are a bit mirrored from the how-to diagram. My sheet is 1-8-7-6 (upside down) and 2-3-4-5 (right side up). It still works fundamentally like the diagram, just make sure you fold the cover to the very outside.

I hope this helps destress and/or cheer you. I know I feel just the tiniest bit better now.
