Memento Mori: An Archive (2011)The first zine I ever made, as a final project assignment for a gender & sexuality class I took early in my time at college. The text deals mostly with my struggle to find a coherent identity in the midst of frequent relocation and my (at the time) recent diagnosis of chronic depression.

In Search of Lost (2013)One of the more formally deliberate zines of mine, this intersperses my answers to the Proust Questionnaire with two different series of vignettes--one about my mother dying and the other about my grandfather dying.

I Shot James Franco (2015)This is a 'high-concept' zine. Framed as James Franco's final artist's statement, I Shot James Franco acts as a grandiose goodbye to the world as he prepares to perform his finest work of art to date: killing himself. The text is comprised entirely of erasure poetry from magazine profiles on James Franco.
