Since 2020, MANIFEST (zine) has presented writing, art, photography, and creative bits of whatnot in a series of zines ranging in topics from creativity, grief, change, the environment, social issues, and finding refuge in turbulent times.
It’s an eclectic combination of lit mag, artist book, and poetry chapbook, that also includes a curated Spotify playlist. Beautifully printed, it’s layered with colors, textures, meanings (and music), the result is a thought-full, tactile journey with nooks and crannies for you to discover.
But since 2020, the costs for printing and postage have increased dramatically. And while there is a steady and loyal list of subscribers, it’s getting harder and harder to print and mail out issues on a regular, quarterly basis.
That’s why I’m hoping to raise $1,000 for production to take us through 2026, including the Spring 2025 issue, PERCEPTION, which has been ready to go to press since March.
As a thank-you for each donation of $25, I will mail you (or a recipient of your choosing) one of the following:
- One copy of any of my books: LOOK UP! Musings on the Nature of Mindfulness, Evidence of Flossing: What We Leave Behind, Waiting Out the Storm, Water Under the Bridge: A Sort-of Love Story, or Sleeping with Ghosts.
- Four issues of any past MANIFEST (zine) listed on our website*
With the first 10 donations, I can send PERCEPTION off to press and get to work on the summer issue!
Thank you for your ongoing support!
*Excluding issue #1 – Divine Intervention and #14 – You Mean a Woman Can Open It? which are current out of print)
