Crow Name

Artemis II splashed down at 8:07 and 27 seconds pm EST! 9 days, 1 hour, 32 minutes, and 15 seconds in space 💗

Last night, I hand embroidered this penny-sized piece based on the now famous "Hello, World" picture from the crew. I'm absolutely ecstatic that the crew seems to all be well (they are trying to erect the "front porch" float to evacuate the crew as I'm making this post). Here's to their accomplishments, and here's to more spaceflights in the future!! 🌍🌍🌍🌍🌍🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

*daydreams about making a little plague fairy game*

Well yall, I've been feeling down lately (like most of us) so I thought I'd do something fun and I'm making valentine's mini prints to give out to people in my community. The real question is this: should I use red or black ink?? 👀👀👀👀

Hey everyone! So - I've finally gotten everything together to start accepting submissions again, and guess what - submissions are officially open for our literary/art magazine, Crow Name Issue 8: Asterisk*, TODAY.

Below, you can read all about what it's - well - *all about*.
You can also go to www.crowname.com/submit to read the guidelines and this blurb again!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
For the first time, we are revealing the cover of the issue before accepting submissions! Behold Asterisk* – Crow Name Issue 8!

The Asterisk is a typographical symbol that is a stylized image of a star. It is usually five or six pointed in print and six or eight pointed when written, and its most common use is to call attention to a footnote. It is often used to censor words, or redact information. It can also be used to denote *action* in comics, and in online chats, it can be placed around words and phrases to indicate italics, or *feeling*.

There are a wide variety of uses for the Asterisk beyond those listed above, but Issue 8 will be focusing the most on the afterthought – the footnote, the overlooked, the redacted, the censored, and the unseen*.

*Please submit writing and art you feel represents a topic, item, people, etc. that is often overlooked, censored, or pushed into the footnotes. Examples: disability, LBGTQIA+, homelessness, women’s rights, underserved and neglected communities, etc. If you are part of any of these communities, you are strongly urged to submit!
