What an absolute treat it has been to run it back and do this dang thing again! I am so grateful to all the incredible people who made this edition possible. Issue No. 2 is all about the people, bringing funky creatives together to build this dreamscape as a community. If the first issue was a framework for what Oofie could be, Issue No. 2 brings that dream to life! I had the pleasure of working with over 30 creatives, each bringing something unique to the table.
This time around, I honed my interviewing skills and worked on being the best director, stylist, and writer I could be. Twoofie was a real learning process, and though I had a few moments of flop, I was able to rise back up stronger and more passionate than ever! But I cannot take all the credit. I am so grateful for my friends and family, without whom Twoofie would not be possible. I also have the fantastic magazine community in New York to thank. I have learned so much from other creators and people in the indie zine scene, and I hope we can continue to push each other to create something fantastic for ourselves and the community.
My dream for Twoofie is for you to dive in and create with it, cut up the pages and use them in your junk journal. Scribble on your favorite spreads, rip out pages, dog-ear corners, and dare to get messy with it. Twoofie is officially yours, now make it uniquely yours!! I love you, have fun!







WELCOME TO THE CIRCUS
To celebrate issue 2 we put up our big top tent and laid out an unlimited buffet of all you can eat ice cream sundaes and got to partying!! No circus party is complete without a face painting station, collaging set up, and live performances by musical artists featured in the magazine!
​
We also had a small market of vendors featured in the magazine, including bedazzled creations by Rachel, weed from Julie, custom press-on nails by Kara, and of course, magazines for sale!!
​
Everyone came decked out in their best clowncore costumes to fit the theme inspired by the Jestie Besties spread in the magazine!
​
At every launch party, I give a speech to say thank you and to honor the artists featured in that issue. No matter how many times I rehearse my speech, I always end up just grinning ear to ear, saying, "OMG OMG OMG THANK YOU THANK YOU WOW WOW WOW I'M SO HAPPY RIGHT NOW!!!" But that's how it should be, right?
