A Special Message For You Hand-Delivered To You In The Universe by Yumi Sakugawa (2012)
, 17 Aug 2016
This is a 28-page e-zine, with a collection of short stories or images that can also be found in Yumi Sakigawa's website on Tumblr. Some of the stories are drawn in colour and others in B&W, and they are mostly motivational and New Age, with some "how-to" regarding anxiety, negative people, consciousness and so on.
The drawing style is naive and young, intuitive more than artistic, but very charming. There is a mix of text and doodling as well, like the book's cover for example.
All of the stories have a pearl of wisdom in them, and I think they would make a nice block desk calendar if more were added.
Perhaps because a person I know has been dumping their negativity on me lately, the advice on how to deal with negative people in the e-zine seemed especially relevant. I also liked the whimsical advice on how to get out of a dry creative spell.
