Weeping Willow Issue #1: Personal

Winner of the 10th annual Washington State Zine Contest!

Horror makes me cry! This zine series is part horror fanzine, part perzine. I explore the horror genre with emotional vulnerability, sharing reviews, personal essays, recommendations, and lots of collage.

This issue, themed "Personal," takes the perzine aspect of the series a step further, focusing on my experiences and preferences within the genre to set up a nice foundation for the rest of the series.

Featuring:
- A peek-a-boo cover
- An essay about my experience watching "I Saw the TV Glow" as someone realizing they're trans
- Lists of my favorite horror books and movies
- An essay about losing my grandfather and how Grady Hendrix's How to Sell a Haunted House helped me through it
- Lots of collage
