Almost ready to share blocking for pages so far, but if @redenigma (garden jam recipe?) @BosmangBeratna (self-help essay?) @DavidSalo (thoughts on Life & The Universe?) & @JGSchaeffer (respite?) are still interested in contributing, please do!
And... @stueytheround? Do you have a quick recipe, song, or anything else you'd be interested in contributing? I see you "liking" some of these posts; you're more than welcome to share whatever your heart desires, too!
Thanks for all work to date!
@MLClark @redenigma @BosmangBeratna @DavidSalo @JGSchaeffer @stueytheround Are you accepting new contributors?
Welcome, Jen! What would you like to share? We're building an issue around natural and more hopeful living. What that looks like is a bit different for everyone. What are you thinking of, for yourself?
@redenigma @BosmangBeratna @DavidSalo @JGSchaeffer @stueytheround
@MLClark @redenigma @BosmangBeratna @DavidSalo @JGSchaeffer @stueytheround I would like to write about how learning to speak new languages has helped give me hope, and cope with my brain disease. I went on my first proper holiday in over two decades this year, to Wales so I could finally have a break -- and to sit for my Welsh language exam. Since I live for adventure and I am perpetually broke, I backpacked it, stayed in a dorm for most of my trip, and bought groceries to make sandwiches.
Jen, we're delighted to have your joy in the piece.
I'm going to make one recommendation, though, due to the size of the #Zine (which favours tighter pieces).
Can you centre the piece *just* on that experience of travel for the first time in two decades?
4-800 words should fit over two pages, and it would give us that Zine-length taste of a big and wonderful adventure. (So happy you were able to make it happen!)

@MLClark @redenigma @BosmangBeratna @DavidSalo @JGSchaeffer @stueytheround Diolch yn fawr! (Thank you very much!) I will!
