Last Friday there was a zine fair. I printed two Lit.cat writing collections and a collection of my own writing. It went incredibly well, I sold nearly all of my stock, and two people posted my writing on Instagram. (also, it is nuts how many people showed up to this fair, like maybe 300 people in a building meant to house 200?)

My favorite teacher in the world was there- my 6th grade elementary teacher! It was his first year teaching a class by himself that year, and I remember him kindly for reaching out to all of us. He said the most validating thing to me after reading my zine: "That 12 year old kid who rambled in class all day- he's still in here. But now he's refined and persuasive.

It was a good day.

I started playing Cuphead, I found out you could pair single Nintendo Switch controllers to your laptop, and it works well for gameplay, other than a weird glitch that prevents you from talking to characters and progressing.

The music made me forget I wasn't white.
