What Condition my Condition was in / Post uni-trance:
After completing my Masters at the end of 2018, I also started an ongoing free zine series called, Post Uni-Trance (which was renamed What Condition my Condition was in). Here, I brood over what I've been up to lately, and adjusting to life beyond uni after having spent most of my adult life studying. It can be found in Sticky Institute and The Back Room's free section, or via Small Zine Volcano. A few of my favourites can be viewed below:
