"I see my zines as fun, scary stories to entertain people with and provide them a temporary escape from the real world (and its much more terrifying horrors). My first and largest goal as a writer is to be able to make a living writing comics and graphic novels. I’ve loved the medium since I was a kid, and I love the collaborative nature of the art form. I see zines as the ultimate creative playground, where we have complete freedom to make whatever we want without worrying about appeasing executives or shareholders or any other corporate, capitalist entity." "I have a horror anthology zine called The Bleekhaven Accounts. Each zine is its own prose horror story, and the through-line connecting each story is the setting. Each story is set in the same house: a deeply cursed, wicked place named Bleekhaven. I write the stories and design the zines myself using a mix of Photoshop and Publisher. So far I have released 4 issues in a little over a years’ time. Each story also has some visual elements sprinkled throughout the zine to make for a more compelling read."
