I'm thinking of doing an early 80s style B&W print & mail 'zine about...#guitars. Small print runs, maybe one interview & one article per issue with whatever else catches my fancy.

Been two years since my youngest child has been struggling with extreme anxiety, & a solid year now since she has refused to go to school. This last year has been the most difficult & trying year of my life - supporting my wife's career, help my eldest child through high school & deal with my youngest's psych/emotional issues.
For the first time in my life I am struggling w/ insomnia, weight gain, anxiety myself.
Not really sure how much longer I can maintain this, but day to day I manage.
