Quaranzine

Quaranzine is a webzine I curated, produced and published in spring 2020 as the coronavirus pandemic began to change our daily lives.

It started with a simple, open call: "Need a creative outlet right now? You’re in good company." To my surprise and delight, 25 artists and writers from all over the United States—most of whom are total strangers to me!—answered that call.

Intentionally, Quaranzine had just one requirement: to loosely reference or relate to the coronavirus pandemic. Every single submission was included and presented unedited and in the order received—a sort of time capsule encasing a sliver of the moment we were living through.

I am proud beyond words to showcase their thoughtful, meaningful work in these pages.
