i love this!! i also started a tiny pandemic lit mag (kernelmag.io) and now we throw big parties and sell magazines and ask for pitches and apply for little grants every year and people ask me how we did it, and the answer is just "you wake up and say you're doing it and then you do it"

We're in luck! I know how to survive in the woods, make fire, and find water. You know how to get published. Perhaps we're not doomed, after all.
