  • Black Worm Tea Society

    Black Worm Tea Society

    Awhile back, I fell down a slight rabbit hole as I was having a Gong Fu tea brewing session and browsing YouTube. I happened to see a suggestion for a video about fake martial arts. It showed an old comic book ad for a scammy Kung Fu martial arts society. Gong Fu is actually the same word as Kung Fu, just an alternate westernized spelling. My brain, being what it is, leaped to starting a scammy tea society, and I created a joke version of the ad.

    A friend then threatened to actually send a self-addressed stamped envelope for the “membership kit” and well… I ended up making a membership card and started creating a “World’s Deadliest Pouring Secrets” booklet/zine.

    Fast forward to today, when the friend’s SASE actually arrived, and well… I had to finish creating the zine.

    The only way to become a card-carrying member is to already know what address to send the SASE to, but you can get the World’s Deadliest Pouring Secrets right here… if you dare!

  • A zine for the season

    For spring! I have created a zine that you can print out and fold yourself then read to learn how to draw a simple labyrinth. It’s in PDF format, and is in color, but you can print in black and white if you prefer, and it is still legible.

    A small preview:

    To assemble, fold in half and crease, then unfold. Do this in both directions. Then, holding it horizontally, fold the ends to the middle and crease. Unfold.

    Using a blade, and a ruler if you prefer, slice the middle horizontally along the fold. Slice between the middle 4 “pages” – do not slice all the way – leave the ends uncut.

    Then fold lengthwise with the unprinted sides together. Push the middle pages outwards and crease. Fold with the covers (which are in the upper left in the image above) on the outside.

    If you need a little visual assistance, this video might help:

    And you might even want to make your own!

    I hope that you enjoy it!
