I think I’m supposed to write something mushy and sentimental here, but the truth is that this project was hard. We used to endearingly call it a labor of love, but in feminist theory labor of love has a negative connotation. I wonder sometimes if we committed sabotage this way. Kidding.

In so many ways this project was incredibly important and often necessary for my own personal growth (and I assume Suzy’s, too). I’m so grateful for the community I’ve been a part of for the last decade. I’m happy we could end this on our own terms.

When we first started Yes, Ma’am zine in 2010, I never imagined it would have grown so much! After including our own words and artwork for a few years, we became invested in having Yes, Ma’am be a platform to uplift other contemporary feminist thinkers and creators.

To Elle, from our dorms to now, thank you for being my partner in zines and for our continued friendship. Yes, Ma’am has been such a fun way to create, travel, and grow community together. While transition can be tough, it can also provide amazing new chapters. I look forward to the growth of our friendship and I love you duder!

Zines are an amazing way to voice yourself and to create space for voices around you. For any aspiring zinesters, if you’ve ever thought of creating your own zine, perhaps 2022 is the time!
