SEEKING
Hey, I’m making a zine about sharing resources and I’m collecting stories about ways people share. Do you share? Can you tell me about it? Send anything you want to me at [email protected]. Pseudonyms or anonymous is fine. P.S. I see “giving” as different from “sharing,” but maybe that’s misguided. xoxo Jeremy. [3-21]
