"the year of beauty and darkness"

Mar 9, 2020
In addition to my photography, I also do a fair share of writing, and I'm pleased to announce that I just printed my first 'zine!  
The first few years when I was working in forensics - as a CSI and Death Investigator - were frustrating (poorly managed departments, incompetent "superiors," etc.) and physically arduous (eternal night shift).  But it proved to be a very creative time for my writing, which allowed me to process what I saw and experienced at work.  "the year of beauty and darkness" is a 'zine comprised of pairs of short pieces (micro/flash fiction); one inspired by my work paired with one inspired by the world outside of work.  I'm selling them at $6/each, to help cover printing costs.  If you're interested in purchasing one, please send me a message!
