cultivating the quiet


Hi Reader

This morning I would like to share a comic I made for an open call for a zine. Let me know your thoughts on the comic or anything related to the theme of retreating, disappearing, recharging and/or being alone if you feel like it, but maybe not responding would be more on theme :p

I've been prioritising listening to how I really feel when making plans. Something I noticed: Usually, when I'm in doubt over whether I should go to for example an event or not, I do actually know what I want deep down, but I'm just kind of afraid to admit that to myself, because for some reason I feel like I should go even though I don't actually feel like it. That was a long sentence. Does that make any sense?

Anyways, have a good week :)

reminder to self #5 May '24 i have nothing to say that was a lie. it’s not that i have nothing to say. perhaps i just feel less inclined to say it. i’m afraid this is an excuse for why i have not written or sent a newsletter in the month of april. to be completely honest: i just didn’t feel like doing it and i don’t feel like anyone cares, so if i don’t care to say anything and no one cares to hear it then why should i care to stress over it? hm. this has a very negative tone. it’s not that...
