Stay Dope as Fuck

Volume 1 Issue 2 of the Oh es Oh features 2 special guests. The first of which is Soraya the Great, who lends his universal knowledge in a long chat and his art skills to the center spread of the zine. My printing set up being what it is (charmingly crappy), the original triptych "Stay Dope As Fuck" appears somewhat faded- here is the original artwork in full color.

Behind the Zines #2 : Apology

As I sit in the corner of my living room where I would put a papasan chair if had one, black nail polish chipped on my pointer finger from pulling staples, printer slowly grumbling away, I'm struck that I owe an apology. Dear people who make full-size zines, I'm sorry. I'm sorry for all the times I sassed about how much more exciting half sized zines were. Sorry I sassed about stapling instead of string.

But good fucking gravy- I get it now. Full-size zines are no joke.

The Dinosaurs - Follow Up

Since people are starting to get their copies of vol. 1 iss. 1, here's a little extra. The Memory Tourist series are all based off of my memories, sometimes flawed. "The Dinosaurs", however, is not flawed in the slightest. After about 5 minutes on google maps, I present to you all... well, the dinosaurs. I still do not have any answers as to "what the fuck?"

An Anachronism in the Making

 In 2012 I wrote a poem I never finished, titled Perhaps.  Oh, I made the start of a series of mini zines of it, I edited it, I reimagined, revisited and revised it- but I never truly finished it.  "Perhaps" started in a small square book I made- pocket sized, and was written by hand in a scrawl wherever inspiration struck me over the course of a spring month or so. If ever I stalled on what to write next, I just wrote the word "Perhaps" again and saw where it went from there.  It was one of those poems I considered to be my magnum opus- and I still hold some of the different versions (which never got the exposure to the world that they deserved) in high regard.  But this blog post is not about "Perhaps" it is not entitled "Perhaps" and I still have not given up on my to do list that "Perhaps" will have its moment.  This post is about "An Anachronism in the Making" That's more like it. In 2016 I was in my art and writing r...
