I was impressed by the sincerity and honesty in this magazine. It was very nice to find common points in myself with the persona in the magazine. I think getting any kind of feedback for the work you do by literally anyone strengthens the bonds between you and your newly adopted hobby. (even if it's a family member etc.) Or being inside a community w/ people having the same hobby, at least this is what I think it can be helpful for me and what I try to achieve. Besides that the zine look really neat, I really liked the colors and illustrations used in this zine. I'm looking forward to seeing new zines you'll make if you are planning to.

thank you so much! yes, I feel like sometimes I get stuck between the positive aspect of having a community like sharing experiences and having some sense of accountability, and the "bad" aspects of it like maybe sharing the project before its ripe, and having that instant gratification just to end up dropping it.
