Whomever says print is dead hasn't told that to the Bay Area. Every other day, it seems like there's a new zine, chapbook, or periodical. I'm certainly not complaining, especially when one of those new periodicals is New Life Quarterly, put out by E.M. Wolfman. Vol. 1 came out last year, and I was immediately in love with every article and subscribed to a years' worth of issues on the spot.

Now, I'm so over-the-moon to say that I have a piece included in Vol. 2, which just hit the shelves last week! You can read my essay, on online doll dress-up games, the fear of "play" in adults, and the importance of The Sims on pre-pubescent developing minds HERE.

I'm humbled to be among some truly stellar company, so you'd be missing out if that's the only thing you read. Get the whole kit and kaboodle here.
