Hey!! Just popping in to let you know the INNER WORLD Zine is available for preorder!!

✨ https://arthorsepod.com/zine ✨

This issue is a collection of listener-submitted artwork and stories about identity, self-reflection, and play and it's fabulous.

You can get the PDF version for pay-what-you-want (including zero!) and you can preorder the paper copy for $15CAD with free shipping.

Also: if you've missed hearing from us every week, you can find us in the Discord on our Patreon. https://www.patreon.com/arthorsepod

Discord is a sort of chat room around which we've build an art community! We talk about what we're working on, share inspiration (books! podcasts! articles! workshops!), and sometimes we do video chats where we make art or play games.

There's also a few extra episodes (and funny videos) waiting for you on Patreon!

Anyway love u bye happy new year okay bye

Hiatus time! We’re taking a break from weekly episodes. In the meantime, you can find us in the Art Horse community discord through our Patreon at patreon.com/arthorsepod.

We’ll let you know when we know what’s next!

Thank you to everyone who’s submitted work to the zine so far --- if you’re still hanging on to that submission, you can get it to us at arthorsepod.com/zine or [email protected].

Thanks for listening, and catch ya on the flip side!

• It’s always okay to throw yourself a pity party with a nice cake
• Sometimes it helps to google basic for-dummies shit --- like DO I HAVE ALL THE PIES
• You are guaranteed to miss out on almost everything life has to offer, and that is what makes your choices meaningful (thanks a lot Oliver Burkeman)
• By the time you’re 32 you know a little somethin somethin about tomorrow (and the next day)
• Does striving for things ultimately push them away? Who knows, man

In this episode:

• No one has to live your life except you --- that means you get to choose what big commitments to make (and unmake)
• Which is more devastating: you’re trying to sell art supplies out of your car and no one comes? Or no one comes to your art shop with the 5 year lease?
• Turns out you can’t “set and forget” self-employment (fack)
• If no one is saying yes you don’t have to stay home - you can do fun shit by yourself
• How much would someone have to pay you to eat this rag?
