Northside Community Garden

Creative Prompt: Is it just me, or are the crows especially present on the West and Northsides this year? Write or doodle your pitch to be taken under the crows' wings. What can you offer them? What are you hoping they bring into your life?*

*Wonder-Gizmos is not responsible for any raptures or slippages created between "real" and "fantasy" worlds, supernatural or benign, et. al. during the course of this activity. Please be careful, as we cannot cover any injuries sustained in alternate timelines. We wish we could, but our insurance is crap. We can offer glow-in-the-dark band-aids.

If you'd like to submit your work to our community, anthology zine, please send it to me with your pen name through my Contact Form. You can request my address there, if you'd like to send hard copies.


Please tag me if you post your work to Instagram, I'd be so happy to see it and share it. My handle is @taylor_stein__


The Creative Experiment & Treasure Hunt was cooked up by Taylor Stein.
