Some very difficult decisions made for MYRIAD guest-editors this morning! We had 28 editors apply with 80 unique theme concepts. It has not been easy choosing from these wonderful applications, but I think the zines are going to be fantastic! 🧡

You must pay the blood tithe to the wingèd denizens of the forest if you wish to walk their paths
“Bugs are vital biomass, bugs are vital biomass,” I chanted to myself, trudging through clouds of blackflies. 1. Overgrown bog bridge. 2. Deceptively lovely trail. 3. Tufts of moss growing on a trunk. 4. Bridge over a dry streambed.

We’ve posted some reprints on the Patreon and made them free to read! First up is I Grow by Addison Smith. Published in @hexagonmagazine.bsky.social, @shackleboundbooks.bsky.social, and again on the Manawaker podcast, it’s a story of trauma and recovery as told by an eternally growing sea creature.
