My first attempt at an independent zine. :) I've become quite a bug lover; if you are too, tell me a fun bug fact! Thank you for reading!

    The images and the poetry are so well done! It was so fun to scroll through! Also, it was cool to see a hammerhead worm on the "I dig deeper" page! Before this year, I had never seen one in real life, but I saw two this spring. Unfortunately, they are invasive were I live. As for a bug fact, I recently learned that there is a moth called a Polyphemus moth. It has eyespots on its wings, so it was named after the cyclops in the Odyssey (according to Wikipedia lol).

    Wonderful use of words to turn a trend (would you love me if I was a worm?) into something evocative and beautiful <3 A top notch, inspiring zine!!

  • This was a challenge with R. C. Taylor to create a zine! Please check out her zine and other amazing works!
