Yeah. There it is. 3rd issue. Crazy. I really like doing this. I wanna write and make stuff all day long. I can't of course, but here is the cool thing. I didn't make this when I was in Baltimore. I had one job then and lots more free time. I have 2 jobs now and very little free time. But it gettin' done now. I'm pretty sure that's exactly what I was hoping for. It's scary making that leap to open your own business. We figure we are (conservatively) 20,000 hours into it, between the 2 of us, and all our money. But the learning, ideas, energy and excitement are still there. We love what we are doing and feel so blessed for the amazing experiences we've had and all the awesome people we've met. Things feel right. We have no idea yet if FOE will be sustainable. It will or it won't. We are doing what's important to us and so many wonderful people seem to understand that and encourage us. Whatever happens, we've never worked harder, learned more or accomplished as much. And all that, we get to keep that. We just celebrated our 3rd anniversary. I hope there are many more. There's so much we want to do. I just booked a 2015 show I want to see. You learn how to be an entrepreneur by being an entrepreneur. We're gonna keep working, and doing it our way. 3 years of FOE. 3 zines. I'm not really sure how we did it, but we keep getting what we need. Thank you to everyone who took a chance on us, extended their trust - that makes every single thing worth it.
