Struggling, but getting there!

There's a chance the next issue might be delayed a week or two, I'm not sure yet- so in the meantime, I thought I'd post some imagery to distract you all!I'm a big fan of zine pages having a subtle 'texture' to their overall design, which is usually obtained by having a vague...
