Title from cover.
"Hello - I'm Jolie & this is "The Escapist Artist #11". As you can see it is a split issue with Nichole from "Pieces" zine. I [love] Nichole's zines so I asked her if she'd wanna do a split with me - I'm so happy that she said "yes". This zine is about DEATH. I've dealt with a lot of deaths in my life. About 10 years ago my dad was diagnosed with brain cancer & given 3 months to live. He died in January of 2004. I've never really written that much about it it so I thought now was the time I also want to write about a few deaths that happened this year... Thanks again to Nichole for doing this zine with me. I [love] heraing from people that read my zines & I [love] mail! So please feel free to write, email, or add me on Twitter or Facebook or whatever! All my info is in this zine."--Provided by zinester (Jolie).
"Death is as much a part of life for me as it is for everyone. The world dies every year and I die a little more as well. Loved ones pass, relationships fizzle out, and that spark of life folds onto itself until it disappears complete. Death is sometimes tragedy, but in it there is also renewal. I alter course in my life - sometimes a little; sometimes a lot, but it always means something. Thanks goes to Jolie who suggested we do this split in the first place. There are some stories I've wanted to share for awhile but never really told anyone before, and there are stories in here that you may already know. Death is often the mechanism for change, and instead of mourning what I have lost, I should be celebrating all I have gained."--Provided by zinester (Nichole).
