June + July Opportunities for Creatives
A newsletter about writing, art and living more creatively
Hi friends,
I am keeping this email short. There's been a lot going on, to be honest. Some of it good and some of it challenging — as I'm sure is the case for many of you.
I wanted to push myself a little and figure out a good topic for this month and write — but that felt disingenuous. I'd rather be open and say - I'm feeling a little tired these days!
Reminder: you deserve rest. You don't have to earn it! And when you're ready to come back to your art, it will still be there.
Sending good vibes your way, always.
In my own work:
I wrote about the arts organization called Greetings from South Central and a Mobile Art Lab by DSTL Arts.
My last essay for Khôra is all about quantities: of apartments, medication changes, tacos and more.
I wrote about the dried floral decor trend.
I was interviewed by Lu'Cretia Thomas for her podcast Girl Behind the Hustle.
Your favorite small but feisty writer,
Eva
