Last decade on tumblr, one of the cliques that you could find was the "sad baby dolls":
a mocking term for whom followed the aesthetic popularised by Nicole Dollanganger.
I was always drawn by the edgy side of girlhood: after all, I was that kind of broken girl who lived disturbing situations.
This fanzine was born from that aesthetic and from the identification with one's traumatic experiences.
Btw its in spanish, someday I'll have to translate it. But for now with it's documentation I'm fine
It's a lil cringe but I'm very fond of it, and I wish I could go to hold the girl I was and tell her that the cure...
Is to let pain to be your master, pain makes you stronger yet sensible, pain forges wisdom, pain is intrinsic to human expierence
and one must accept pain and eventually let it go to grow.
Since then my writing has evolved so much:
I experimented with prose, verse, and for a long time my themes were very confessional.
While this autobiographical theme lingers, I'm currently exploring further.
I was twenty I whink when I made this fanzine.
Barely had a few printings.
Now the aesthetic is so outdated and the writing clumsy.
But it stands as a piece of my personal history.
