licking stars off ceilings eleven
NEW: licking stars off ceilings #11 $1.50
this issue was sort of a spiritual journey for me. it is primarily about sex, death, violence and the struggle toward a meaningful, spiritually connected life. it is about the sex i really want and really enjoy. it's about the sexual advances i don't want. it's about my own violent cannibalistic fantasies. it's about my experiences at the hands of real violence. i write about the death of my pedophilic grandfather and what he did to me 10 years ago. it's about fucking and loving men who deal with death first hand, and how i feel about that. primarily it's a zine about finding the goddess again and moving forward on my journey, with honesty. it's a stark little zine, mostly text with a few small drawings of spiritual visions.

Sometimes I stop and think about all the ways my friends are talented and impressive and I get overwhelmed. I've collected a handful of really amazing friends over the years. They don't all live near me and some I don't even talk to very often, but when I do it's an important reminder of why I've kept them close to me. When it comes to friendship, I don't greet everyone with open arms. I can be sort of closed off and hard to read, and I'm not a person who needs a lot of acquaintances. It doesn't always make for the most exciting Saturday night, but it makes the friends I do have really count. When I find someone I want to keep close to me, I try to do my best to make sure they know I appreciate them and that I'll be there to help them when they need it, for big or little things. I try to go out of my way to participate in things they do, to give them feedback on projects they're working on, to help them carry stuff when they move or lend my advice if they need it. I'm not always warm, but I'm warm in spirit. I hope that counts. Here's a small survey of some of my favorite people. One of them is a musician who just self-produced her own album. She did the recording herself and everything. I helped her do the cover art of her album. She's funny and not exactly like me, but that's what I like about her. She doesn't always know what I'm talking about, but she always asks and tries to find out more about the things I participate in. One of them moved to Denver to pursue her career. She took a big leap to move somewhere across the country by herself. I recently saw a picture of her on Halloween and she was standing there with a Sexy Sailor, a Sexy Nurse, and a Sexy cat or something. She was a contestant from Legends of the Hidden Temple. She plays bass guitar and sings back up on the previously mentioned friend's new album. One of them just got married and is starting a real life, has two dogs, is pursuing a career in the medical field, and is extremely driven to achieve what she wants and also strives really hard to make sure she's doing the right thing for the people around her. One is an incredible photographer making everything work for himself. He works harder than anyone I know, is more organized than anyone I know, and more self-reflective than anyone else too. He'll continue to do incredible things because he's never satisfied with himself. I want to work harder and be a better person because of how he is. One is a writer that I'm collaborating with. I've always wanted to find someone I wanted to work with on a big project, and she's someone I think I can work with. We seem to be on the same page about everything so far, which is a relief. She has big aspirations and continues to try to figure out how to be doing important things. One is a poet who writes as a way to figure things out. I don't know anything about poetry but I like to read his. He's usually up for doing fun things and is there to listen to me vent if I need to. He also makes funny and simple comics like I do. He's a good comrade to have in trying to figure out Chicago as a place to call home. One just toured Europe for two months with little to no direction. He just dropped everything and went with his friend who was playing music. I loved hearing about all of his adventures and was jealous that he was brave enough to put his life on hold to go do this. I'm too home based to travel extensively but I wish I wasn't. I admire people who can just go. One moved to Seattle to jumpstart herself and push herself to try new things. She's successful at dreaming big and coming up with big plans that she wants to do with me. She's consistently inventing a persona for herself and learning all sorts of new things in the process, like weird dancing, and music, and drawing. She's also very supportive of me and always there to try to say the right thing to make me feel better. Many of them make incredible zines, make incredible music that I'm really proud to listen to and spread the word about, make fine art worthy of gallery walls, make art to adorn my bedroom walls, make productive community spaces, make productive community organizations run successfully, make comics that I wish I was good enough to draw. I forget that not everyone has surrounded themselves by creative people and I'm lucky to have all of this inspiration around me because many people don't. My life would be so different if I had sought out different types of friends and colleagues. Lately I've had so much anxiety about myself. I'm worried that I'm not doing enough, being creative enough, taking enough risks, working hard enough, or being a good enough friend. I just want to do big things and be important to those around me, not impressive, but important. I guess everyone wants to feel special and like they matter to the people around them. I hope all of these people know they matter to me. |

Name: Teresa Age: 20 Birthday: July 14th Gender: Female Orientation: Straight Location: Kansas City, Missouri, USA Occupation: Front Desk monkey at the Holiday Inn and cashier monkey at Gamestop. Languages Spoken: English. Relationship status: Single and awesome with it. Religion: Registered catholic, but I figure that I don't need a structured religious base to believe in God. Interests: Wow, long list. Let's see....MUSIC, reading, writing (all types, 'cept I suck at poetry), laughing, working out, dancing, singing, practicing on my clarinet, drawing, writing letters (obviously...)acting, watching re-runs of old shows I used to watch as a kid (I.E Mystery Science Theater 3000, Full House, Guts, Legend of the Hidden Temple, etc.), anything to do with Dan Aykroyd, making my own running commentary on movies (much like Mystery Science Theater), playing organized sports, anything paranormal and supernatural, and day dreaming. Sleeping is always nice too. Music: I have an appreciation for all genres of music, but I do have a soft spot for blues, jazz, and show tunes. Games: SUPER MARIO BROTHERS GAMES. Period. Oh, and occasionally Roller Coaster Tycoon. Movies: Anything that has Dan Aykroyd in it (can you tell he's my favorite actor?), Michael Jackson's This is It (HIGHLY SUGGEST you see it if you haven't), and fictional historic romances, like Titanic and Pearl Harbor. I also like old martial arts movies, such as The 36th Chamber of Shaolin, Enter the Dragon, and whatever else. I do like Quentin Tarantino movies as well. TV: Mystery Science Theater 3000, Mythbusters, Ghost Hunters, Law and Order, Saturday Night Live (the original cast, not this new shit), Dirty Jobs, CNN, Mystery Science Theater 3000, and Mystery Science Theater 3000. Oh hey, did I mention Mystery Science Theater 3000? Me in general: I'm a happy, crazy (in a good way) person. I like to break out into song and dance at random times and places, I love laughing and making other people laugh, and I take the time to enjoy the little things in life. PenPal Info: How many penpals do you have? I have a few, but I'm addicted to writing and sending packages. How many do you want? 1209345092350928345 Do you want email pals? Not really. We can start by email, but I'd much rather revitalize the old and gracious art of letter writing. Do you want snail-mail penpals? Yes! How long are your letters? Usually 3 pages, but more if I get rolling on a subject. How long does it take you to reply to a letter? I reply as soon as I read the letter. Would you like your penpal to be male or female? I prefer female, but male is fine too. Age? Age is relative; attitude is what matters. Where would you like them to be from? Anywhere, but overseas might take a little longer because I only get paid every two weeks. What are you looking for in a pen pal? I like learning about new people and new places. I believe that everyone has an interesting story to tell. Current Mood:  complacent |

just got back from the milwaukee zine fest. it was a lot of fun and i actually sold more than i thought. i never really know what to expect and usually bank on only selling 2 or 3 copies of each issue, but i sold 5-8 copies of each issue, which is pretty great! if i can make enough money to have a great day surrounding the fest, pay for gas, the tabling fee, and two good meals out at restaurants that day, then i consider it an achievement and i was able to do that tonight. we ate at the riverwest co-op and i split a vegan reuben and a philly cheese steak with leslie. for dinner i had a country fried seitan steak with mashed potatoes at the palamino. so much food! we tabled with neil and it was a lot of fun to get to hang with him more. he's really cool. we had a good little chicago showing. there were several other chicago tablers there! it was great to see dave and kisha again, who are from chicago but i met out in portland at the portland zine symposium, and also nice to meet a few other chicagoans briefly, like benny and johnny and jason, and the indigo zine girl. some other chicago kids came up just to come to the fest, rather than table, and it was cool to see that as well. it made us all realize that it's strange there isn't a chicago zine fest and we started talking about planning one for february. neil works at quimby's so he would have some great connections there, and it would be easy to cover the cost of a hall with tabling fees probably. i think a lot of people would come out to a chicago zine fest. we sold several copies of our split comic zine, it's not funny, which was great too. creative endeavors. worth it just for the fun, i suppose, even if i'll be perpetually in debt.

forgot to post again yesterday, ahh! here's my friday post. FRIDAY +/- +++++++++++++ .going to the milwaukee zine fest. can't wait to spend the day with friends and sit around reading zines .spike of warmish weather lately. indian summer .daydreaming about moving to durham, north carolina and opening a coffeeshop with kate. actually sort of talking seriously about it .finished a comic compilation zine with matt and leslie, i'll post details soon. .saw daniel's band, like rats, last night. they're really awesome and i'm excited for them to get more on the radar. so tight, super catchy, primative driving tunes. the type of hardcore i really like. there's no reason a label won't pick them up soon, they're already that good. .good music. .good coffee. .rover had a play date yesterday. i have a good dog. .sort of apartment hunting. more on that later. .i have a great job and i work for a great family that i feel really comfortable around. i was nervous to work for a family that i knew would be a round a lot because you get into a groove with a kid when you're alone. you can be that much sillier, talk outloud without feeling crazy, dance around with them without feeling self conscious, etc. it's either to be an all out nanny, i think, and most other nannies i've talked to have felt the same way. but fortunately, i'm totally comfortable around the family and will just get to be more so. .realized i've been making my zine for 6 years. that's so long to be working on the same project. i should probably start working on list #14 soon. - - - - - - - - - - - - - .bummin a lot lately. i need a big change. .cold weather looming ahead .need to meet more people .living with roommates .rover sheds so much .money money money. this is perpetually on my minus list. .spending money on zines, something that you never really get paid back from. why do artists do creative things and sink money into it? it's an illusion that the things we make are important. playlist: the low anthem, nirvana, nico, dirty on purpose, cold cave Current Music: Blew - Nirvana |
