Project Update: The Final Update
Dearest Denizens of Mudpit Flats,
Zines are in the mail, and tracking numbers have been delivered. Mudpit Manor belongs to you now. I hope you enjoy your time there.
I thought, at first, that this entire process was about challenging myself to try something new and honing my creative abilities. What I learned is that the real challenge is allowing yourself to be human, and fallible, and vulnerable enough to put parts of yourself on the page.
A very wise man told me, and I hope he won't mind me quoting him:

I read a memoir once, and the only thing I remember is the woman said she realized that she was "neither worm nor wonder." I think it's important to accept ourselves with the grace we would show others.
If there is anyone out there reading this who is being called to try something like this for the first time and you have doubts, please know that you are not alone. Have faith in yourself and in this community. I promise you we will have your back.
Hope rolls on,
sb
