Confessions Zine - Per-Zine on Shame & Guilt | DIY Poetry, Photography, and Writing

Seller's description
Confessions Zine Issue No. 01: A zine where I confess things about myself
A DIY half page perzine, set in typewriter font, 16 pages cover to cover; staple bound. Ships with a free sticker! ✨
Intimate reflections on shame and guilt featuring writing, poems, and photographs that I took between 2022-2024.
✨ I made this zine because I’ve always felt a lot of shame. the admissions in these pages are not inherently bad— just truths that I want to acknowledge. I am “confessing” not because I’ve done something wrong, but because it sometimes feels like I have. Because I want to stop being afraid of myself. Because maybe someone else in the world can relate. Because I’m allowed.
Something that I'm learning is that it's radical to be vulnerable and share your feelings! I hope this zine inspires someone else to be brave and share themselves too!
*This zine is designed and printed by me in my home studio.
