You are incredibly creative and cool!

(Yeah, you!)

A free one-page zine that believes in you — always, but especially during slogging-through-molasses moments of discouragement and doubt.

Lots of us have been told — or told ourselves (repeatedly and mercilessly, sheesh!) — that we’re not creative. Boo.

Creativity isn’t a static, you-got-it-or-you-don’t thing. We’ve all got infinite capacity for unique and valuable ideas; and the curiosity to follow them; and the patience to nurture them; and the resilience to let them grow; and the bravery to share them; and the strength to do it again, and again, and again. That’s cool.

This zine is for everyone!

Print it out —> fold it up (just like this!) —> flip through it when you need a boost —> add your own affirmations —> unfold it and brainstorm all the fun stuff you’re looking forward to making, learning, doing, collecting, and sharing.
