What if I told you there was a free, ethical, and community-enriching way to get the most out of your local data center? No, really. And what if I also told you that you don’t need a lit mag to publish your work (don’t tell my boss), because you can make your own zine instead? For free?? Close your mouth, sweetie, you look like a trout. A trout who’s not ready for three free writing workshops (social media! micro prose! writing about real people!) and seven whole tools to make the writing process a breeze. Time to get into it!
Free sh!t going on this week
If you aren’t already a patron of a public library in your area, I strongly recommend you become one. These “OG data centers,” as they’ve been dubbed online, are a treasure trove of writers’ essentials: free books, free coworking spaces, free community events. What’s not to love? I’d say “dust off your library card,” but you don’t even need one to attend these events. What can I say. Public libraries RULE and we must protect them at all costs!! After all, where else can you come in and build a blanket fort to hide in and read for free?
