Description: "That feeling that makes you want to make art - it is your gift. Let's enjoy it." For this issue, Weiner asks contributors to share their own "lucky charms" they use to get through everyday life, in celebration of the "joy of making art." The contributors, many of them Japanese women, write poetry and prose in English and Japanese about their lives, maintaining friendships, relationships and breakups, motherhood, the changing of seasons, and appreciating the natural world around them. A handwritten postcard note to Jenna Freedman from Weiner is filed alongside the zine.
