Weeping at the white oak gravestone (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Greetings, beautiful creatures ~I cried immediately upon seeing a thoughtful grave marker in Hollywood Cemetery last weekend while traveling for an expo in Richmond, VA (a show I nearly bailed on if I am being completely honest given my nervous system’s current state of being).Folks left offerings to her. The mushrooms still grow on her backside. She is still feeding us (at least emotionally) and the earth (via the mycelia) in death.A most lovely small joy that I am thankful I got to experience.
Y'all, nature is SO goth (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Life, she’s really really been lifin’ lately. Simply put, July was roundhouse kick right in the sack (no, I don’t have balls, but if I did, July would’ve rendered them useless anyway). Now with that visual firmly planted in your mind, please enjoy this zine from the vault. Nature is so goth! <d
