#the crane wives zine

[thecranewives-zine]

TCW Zine Interest check!

Hello, and welcome!

My name is Briar and I am looking into wanting to make a collaborative fan zine inspired by the indie-folk-rock band, The Crane Wives.

Nothing is set in stone currently. This is just an interest check to see who would be interested. So far the rules/boundaries set are:

It must be SFW

there may be an age restriction placed in the future.

The dream is for this zine to be sold both physically and digitally. I am also hoping those involved can agree on a charity that we can donate a percentage of our compensations to.

Thank you for viewing! I hope you will be interested in helping make this a reality!

[landscaping-your-mind]

Home. Such a simple word. Home — not house, not dwelling, not residence or address — [...] not domicile or flat or lodging or abode or apartment or property or accommodation. Home. A structure of brick or wood or concrete or canvas. A box in which you pack yourself away when the long day is done. A book neatly closed and placed snugly on a shelf. There's no place like home. An Englishman's home is his castle. Home is where the heart is.

This house says my name like an elegy Oh my, oh my Echoing where my ghosts all used to be Oh my, oh my

there was a house in pennsylvania with a ghost in the walls (an unloved house can be a certain kind of forever home)

And home is where that heart can be hurt most severely, because within that place of safety, the warm and welcoming embrace of the cramped and well-trod floors whose layout has ingrained itself into your soul, there you are most vulnerable. Your home is an extension of yourself, as much as you will let it be, and the place and the people and the things that form it and fill it are as much a part of you as your blood. As your bile. As your tears.

Home is- Home is where the fucking heart is, but someone ripped out mine.

You just wanted to prove there was one safe place, just one safe place.

There is a place, deep in the heart of fear, where you trap yourself and claim that it is safety. It was once a cabin and professes still to be such, but as with all in this new world that promises respite, it is a trap. The land outside is warped and twisted by the touch of those things that feed on your suffering, and behind those rough, wooden planks it seems they cannot reach you. The screams may linger on the distant breeze, and your Eye may wander beyond the curtains from time to time, but you and the one you love are, it seems, safe.

That place is in my bones. That place is in my soul. I can't remember what it looked like.

Stay, the cabin says. Stay within my false defences, cling so close to what you desperately wish to save, and live in shaking fear of the things beyond that may take it from you. Throw another log on the fire and curl up close. There are always more logs for the fire here. This is your home, and here you can be safe, as you putrefy, body and soul.

Won't you stay with me, my darling When this house don't feel like home?

this zine may not be about you. for a long time these thoughts were in my brain but only to lovingly yell at my friends. this zine may be about you but not helpful to you at this time. i hope it's helpful to some though.

if you like this zine you may also like the body neutrality movement. and the song "can't go back" by the crane wives, which i kinda quoted as well. leave the rest behind.

this is part of my project to make a zine a day in april

some things that didn't fit in this zine were:

you gotta learn. you gotta learn that learning doesn't mean feeling bad.

it doesn't help you act right to feel bad about previous things. guilt is useful to a point. that point is reached when you know what you did wrong

[countthelions]

29, 28, 11, 3, 6? 🎨🖌️

accidentally bUSY ALL DAY OOPS!! you gave me some good questions too ooooh

3. What ideas come from when you were little?

Hmm, I'm not entirely sure tbh! I could say my love for drawing backgrounds and hair perhaps? A lot of my earlier characters had some pretty fantastic and fun hair, and if I'm not drawing boxes or hatchmarks in empty spaces on my pages, then I was drawing trees. Writing wise,,, mm perhaps Calvin and Hobbes tbh. A wonder to explore the world, but also not shy away from it's edges, best you can, when they rise up round you.

6. Anything that might inspire you subconsciously?

Ough, the only thing I can think of is Jubilations, how they drew people was inspiring and made me draw people as a result. Writing wise, I am almost positive that A Series of Unfortunate Events being The(tm) book series that got me into reading with the ferocious appetite I've got now has rooted itself deep into my creative subconscious somehow, though I could not tell you what marks it has left. I haven't read the series since middle school, so a reread would make those spots clear I think!

11. Do you listen to anything while drawing? If so, what?

Depends on what I'm drawing usually! If it's a character of mine, I've got a collection of character playlists I try to pop on so I'm staying close to their vibes. I have "monthly" playlists I'll cycle through as well - monthly being in quotations because they tend to go on longer than that before I build the next one. Sometimes I'll just,,,, listen to the same song over and over. Yesterday I listened just to "Tongue and Teeth" by the Crane Wives, then after dinner, I put up "The Garden" (also by the Crave Wives) and listened to that till bedtime XD I try to match the vibe of what I'm drawing though.

Writing wise, if it's for RP, I'll use the character playlist. If it's fic wise, depends on the fic but it'll either be something I can tune out (instrumental and/or lowfi, or thunderstorms) or will drown out the rest of my thoughts (sometimes the fic's playlist, sometimes, like yesterday, it's tongue and teeth by the crane wives XDD)

28. Any art events you have participated in the past (like zines)?

Kinda :o!! I've participated in Secret Exchanges in roleplay groups before, and I've submitted my art to contests, but nothing fandom wise yet! I'd love to try a zine some day, but my tendency to lean towards slumbering fandom makes that a challenge

29. Media you love, but doesn't inspire you artistically?

This is a REALLY TRICKY QUESTION because I am a creative soul by nature. I get inspired by the clouds going by, by how my plants look during the day, just about anything and everything. I think the only, only piece of media I went: yeah that's perfect, as is, was Red Dead Redemption 2. I've reblogged art and gifsets, and read a very small collection of fanfic [it's a hard voice to mimic, I get it] but I've never felt the urge to create in it myself. I adored how the story went, and it's certainly spurred my cowboy love further, but Hell-Raising had already taken over, so it was merely feeding a fire already lit. Absolutely amazing game, 11/10, would wipe my memory to play it anew

- I started questioning my identity in 2019; I'm no closer to finding a label now than I was then. The difference is, now I don't want a label. I just am. :]

(bi)weekly media update

apparently I just. do these every two weeks now huh. sorry to the tuesday again no problem extended universe crew for being unable to keep to a consistent schedule

listening: Curses by The Crane Wives, a band that I just started listening to but I like their sound, nice and fun and folksy, lots of songs with ominous lyrics that are good on fanmixes

honorary mention to the new Lil Nas X song because we are all love the new Lil Nas X song, it’s a bop, it’s been stuck in my head on and off ever since I heard it, and I am not immune to sexily blasphemous music videos

reading: finished Smoke & Ashes, the most recent book in the Kate Kane series that I talked about last week, and I enjoyed it a lot but there sure is a cliffhanger and afaik no set release date for the next one. it’s pretty angsty but does have lots of nice moments of hope, and some discussion about recovering from both depression and alcoholism that I appreciated.

also read more romance novels, and I appreciate that Cat Sebastian, like KJ Charles, knows how to write about rich characters while making it incredibly clear that hoarding wealth is morally indefensible. it’s like the “wow, cool robot” thing where I want to be told that I’m right for disliking capitalism/imperialism/the military industrial complex, but also I do very much want you to show me the cool robot (hot rich prettyboy in nice clothes)

also finally started Harrow the Ninth today, so I’m sure I’ll have more to say about that next time

watching: speaking of “wow, cool robot,” watched a little bit more Turn A Gundam, which sure does have some cool robots. also some gender. the main character crossdresses to like, hide their identity for fun complicated spy reasons and it’s not treated as a joke or anything? it’s just a thing that they do? and no one comments on it beyond when they were like “hey you have to wear a dress to this event because the people from the moon think our mech pilot is a woman and they can’t know it’s actually you because they still think you’re working for them”

absolutely hate that the guy on the right is just wearing a normal boring suit though like. c’mon man

Zan and I have been watching The Falcon and the Winter Soldier aka the sambucky show each week and my review so far is. well it’s about what I expected. the first episode was incredibly slow and kinda disappointing (Sam and Bucky never interact! the fact that Bucky might maybe miss Steve is never brought up, not even by his therapist, who tbh gives me incredibly bad vibes! if my best friend and the only person I knew from my past fucked off and left me alone to deal with my trauma in favor of ruining the life of a woman who’d moved on from him, I’d be pissed!) (for the sake of not being angry all the time I pretend Steve died instead of did That).

the second episode was more fun, more happens, there’s some incredibly heavy-handed corporate queerbaiting mixed in with some actually nice emotional moments (this article and this thread by the same person have a pretty good summary of All That). the handling of race, uh, could be better tbh. I appreciate what they’re going for, and to be fair the whole show isn’t out yet so it could get better (since some of the problems are tied to, y’know, the overall political problems, i.e. the fact that the villains are a group of people, led by a Black woman, who hate borders and illegally deliver medication to refugees which is somehow a bad thing, I kind of doubt it). but there is something about the way they’re making a Black man the mouthpiece of American imperialism, and the way that the new (white) Captain America who takes the shield when Sam doesn’t want it has a Black girlfriend and a Black best friend who, so far, have mostly just given him motivational pep talks, that doesn’t really inspire confidence. (this article and thread are a good overview of that aspect of the show)

also, I think it’s very funny when people are like “well you can’t say anything about the show yet, only two episodes are out” like. first of all lads it’s a six episode show, a third of the content is a decent chunk to use to form an analytical opinion, and second of all, if something strikes you as Not Great, you’re allowed to feel that way and say that, you don’t have to wait to see if there might be some twist or context that makes the thing you didn’t care for great and fine, actually,

that being said,

(when we watched the first episode, the immediate next thing we did was watch Winter Soldier and I was pleasantly surprised how well it holds up. not perfect obvi but still a solid movie, and the music does fuck)

also watched this very neat little video essay on Victoriana costuming and like, why so much media is set in the Victorian era, and started the c-drama Word of Honor which I’m sure will either be in a future post or just. something I start blogging about normally

playing: the weekend before last was the Beam Saber season finale, which I’ve already posted about quite a bit because it was fun and I love to play games with my friends. played a very fun game of Things, Eldritch and Terrifying by S. Gates this past weekend. it’s a very fun game, with very easy-to-follow rules and lots of helpful adjectives and scene starters, and also just conceptual it slaps (one person is an eldritch terror, the other person is the human that they’re courting. there’s a variant where you play as a vampire. it slaps). we made it uh, more of a rom-com than a horror story but I had a very good time, we told a very cute love story, and we’re gonna try again to make it more horror-y next time.

also I finally started Brigmore Witches and it’s very good and fun. my one complaint is that I want the Whalers to have names, because I enjoy the bit at the beginning where you can eavesdrop on them and some of them are concerned for you and some of them are fucked up about the Overseers invading their home and some of them want to fucking betray you. also, I didn’t realize that the very beginning when you fight Corvo is a dream sequence so I spent the whole fight being like “wait why does he get a gun and I don’t, where are my powers, wait aren’t I supposed to lose this fight for Plot Reasons why is he dead.” also, fucking love the favor that lets you dress up as an Overseer to get into the prison. I do love a good disguise mission

making: citrus chicken (from a cookbook so no link), plus some citrus-y root vegetables. very good if you like orange.

writing: nothing I can share yet for ~zine reasons. yes I have several fandom event weeks coming up that I want to participate in, no I haven’t written anything for any of them yet

[sleepysak]

WIP? maybe? i have to do a lotta zine stuff now and this was a warmup while i listened to the crane wives. so, yanno insp from the city elf origin pic, yadda yadda it’s samahl to no one’s suprise

Interview below the cut!

Introduce yourself

🎤 Hi, im Fawn (or Luci), im a chronically depressed, college dropout who gets real jazzed about art and animation. Really jazzed to be a part of this zine and hope to be a part of many more in the future! I do both traditional and digital art, but lately i have been on a real traditional art kick and would like to open traditional commissions at some point. tumblr: https://fawn-witch.tumblr.com/ Insta: https://www.instagram.com/peachpit_witch/ 🥁 http://www.fawndolyn.com 🎷 My name is Fen and I'm 19. I'm an animation student and I like to play videogames and drawing. Find me on twitter (@fenears_) or Instagram!! (@fenears) 🎺 Hi! I like drawing digitally and playing Pokken. You can find my portfolio here: https://foxtrotyy.neocities.org/art.html 🎸 Hello! My name is Fricz, I'm a mexican artist trying to accomplish my dream of becoming a concept artist (focused in character and prop design) and a comic artist. I work mostly in digital but I have been lately exploring more traditional mediums. You can see my art over here: https://twitter.com/FriczArt https://www.instagram.com/friczart/ 🎻 Digital Artist that can be found @glitvhghost !!

Do you do commissions post? Where can we find the info?

🎷 https://twitter.com/fenears_/status/1180968018211409925 🎺 https://twitter.com/foxtrotyy/status/1194784088382722049?s=21 🎻 https://twitter.com/glitvhghost/status/1143615932046225408

Do you listen to music (or tv shows/films/anything else) when drawing?

🎤 I like listening to musical soundtracks, the soundtrack to rwby. I tend to nearly always listen to something while drawing, usually music, sometimes monster factory. I do try to listen to podcasts but my attention span is terrible and i usually end up having to start the episode over. 🥁 Podcasts: Thrilling Adventure Hour, Night Vale Presents, Creep It Real, and others. Also audio books. 🎷 Sure! Music or just YouTube videos 🎺 Yes! I listen to a combination of Tally Hall, Lemon Demon, and Jack Stauber. Other than that, I listen to video game streams. 🎸 Yes, I mostly listen to music and mystery videos when working; it helps me to concentrate and get inspiration. 🎻 music

What’s your favorite music artist/band? If you could ask your favorite band/music artist one question, what would it be?

🎤 Jeff Williams and Casey Williams, The scary jokes, Lizzo, The studio killers,  The crane wives, Ghost Quartet, Blue Kid,  The Beetlejuice musical. Roar, Danna foote 🥁 Aurelio Voltaire is my fav. I talk to him somewhat regularly, so any questions I have are probably already asked. 🎷 I dont have a favourite artist, I like all kind of music. 🎺 My favorite music artist is Jack Stauber. My favorite band is Tally Hall. My question for both of them would be: What got them into music in the first place? 🎸 I have 3 favorite bands: The Killers, Imagine Dragons and Of Monsters and Men. And I'm sure I'd ask what some of my favorite songs from them mean, or I'd tell them the interpretation I get from them to see what they think. 🎻 I don't really have a favourite tbh :')

Do you play an instrument? If not would you like to play one? Which one?

🎤 I own both a ukulele and a keyboard but my perfectionism/anxiety is preventing me from actually learning. I am getting a drum kit for christmas and im real jazzed to learn! 🥁 Violin, ukulele, and bass. Dabble with piano and kalimba. 🎷 Id love to play the piano 🎺 Yes! I’ve been playing piano for a few years 🎸 Yes! I know the basics of playing piano and I'm currently taking guitar lessons. 🎻 No, but I'd like to play one!

Which song(s) are you going to draw?

🎤 Body love medley, by Mary Lambert and Hero, by Ghost Quartet 🥁 Une Sirène à Paris 🎷 Panic Room 🎺 I’m drawing Miss Melody by Andrew Horowitz! 🎸 Crystals by Of Monsters and Men and El Muchacho de los Ojos Tristes by Jeanette. 🎻 We Appreciate Power - Grimes ft. HANA

What do you expect from this zine?

🎤 To make some neat art with some neat people! 🥁 I don’t know. 🎷 To have fun and meet new artists! 🎺 I expect a really cool collection of art from really cool music! 🎸 To know more songs and see how the other artists see them! 🎻 I can't wait to see everyone's diverse and interesting original art!!
