Same! It’s quite a bit of work for a side project, but I really like the experience it gives and the zines it produces! 🧡

All responses for MYRIAD guest-editor applications have now been sent. If you have not received an email, please reach out! Very difficult choices this year. There were so many great applications, but I can only manage so many. Selected editors and themes will be announced soon! 🧡

Two more today so far for a total of ten new subscribers! 🐝 Ahhh let’s keep it going and I will release the new Year Four anthology cover art from the incredible @lizardbrain-art.bsky.social early! 🧡

Yesterday, 8 new subscribers joined the Hive! 🐝 Let’s see if we can get into the double digits today in support of weird, wondrous, and whimsical short fiction from international authors! 🧡

In all fairness, anyone can go on the Hexagon Patreon and get a sneak peek if they sign up, even at the free level! 🐝

June was Hexagon’s lowest earning month since May of 2023. Funding a free magazine requires support from the community! 🧡 In the next few months we have our Year Four anthology, a new issue in September, and FOUR new MYRIAD Zines (with calls coming soon)!

Hello #portfolioday My name is Marc, I make soft scifi comics with a rural flavour with my brother; I'm not looking for work, per se, but rather looking for readers! There are three volumes of my comic available, currently bundled on sale too, check them out here homecomics.ca/products/h%C...

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! 🧡
