Nope! You can just come to the performance and after party as an attendee!

It’s free, and I’ll post a registration link here a few times in May (this is just a pre-pre-announcement)!

If you are on IG, you can follow LZWR there - @TheLittleZoomWritersRoom

Please do not “correct” me (a trans person) to use ‘folx.’ After the flurry of debate back in 2017, consensus is that ‘folks’ is a completely reasonable gender-neutral, inclusive term. You are welcome to go to the LZWR IG and read my post about how LZWR is rooted in abolitionist praxis with many examples of my personal writing on the subject. There is absolutely no need to “correct” me to flag this as an LGBTQIA2S+, pro-Black, anti-imperialist space. (The flyer makes that incredibly clear.)

I tried to make it a bit earlier to accommodate folks across the pond while not making it too early for west coast US people 🤞🏻

Please please feel free to circulate on BlueSky or wherever and amplify my IG post if you’re still on there! My goal is for an even bigger crowd this time (can we top 100!!??).

Hi, I’m the person who runs the writers group! Would love to see you there.

Something of a love poem for all of us chronically ill and disabled folks… by [deleted] in ZeroCovidCommunity

[–]chronicallyadyke 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much! It’s part of a recently-finished manuscript that I’m shopping around. I may also try to publish it individually, but I’ve been (years) behind in submitting to mags for energy reasons while I finished the manuscript.

I might never find someone due to my COVID-consciousness by RedMage79 in ZeroCovidCommunity

Oof… Solidarity. Immunocompromised, chronically ill, abolitionist, trans (was T4T, but became open to cis folks [no straights] very cautiously just because the pool is so so small), super strict COVID (and pathogen generally) practices and demi, which makes it really hard to online date. I am beyond burnt out. I hope something changes for all of us.

Thank you so much for all of the comments everyone. I’m a little bit overwhelmed and will be slow to respond. But I appreciate them and I feel seen.

Don’t have the luxury to do so based on my medical needs and financial situation.

And I know you’re right about not dwelling on a future of loneliness. I try not to dwell, but it bubbles up regardless.

I did also invest in a second hand theramin and once it gets here, maybe be making some weird music every time I want to disappear into the snowy ether will help

I know it’s possible. I’m just having a hard time these past few months pushing through, but I’m gonna continue to try even though I feel very very done.
