My life rules because I have been accepted to the Fight Boredom Zine Residency in Montreal! I will be staying at the Tulip Farm with Amber Dearest (of Culture Slut), right by Ste-Emilie Skillshare, for two whole weeks in August, to work on a zine called Repeat Conceit (working title). The zine is going to be a practice in what Mimi Thi Nguyen calls “the politics of repetition,” as I scour old zines by queers and punks of colour and write reflections in response to their work. It will also contain interviews with older queer zinester punks, as a way to pay homage to queer lineage.
