I perform best, under pressure, but stress isn't good for my anxiety. Having a generous deadline like this is the perfect little nudge I need to make incremental progress. 

Previously, I viewed my perzine as a creative project, but I approached it like work. I was also interrupted a lot, with having to learn how to use picture editing software. Recently, I came across alienmelon's Electric Zine Maker which has reminded me that art is play too. I'm enjoying the creation process so much more now, and experimenting has taken me on new creative tangents. 

I hope everyone can find ways to play, in whatever mediums you're using!
