Hello, it's been a while.
This blog has been mostly inactive this past summer, but I haven't stopped shooting shows. My favorite show this summer has been The Black Keys, tied with Wet Leg. I've shot a lot that's yet to be posted, such as Fleet Foxes, WILLOW, Been Stellar, and much more. I haven't been paying that much attention to new rock music, but I'm enjoying Arctic Monkeys' "There'd Better Be A Mirrorball," cleopatrick's "OK," and Paramore's "This Is Why."
I want to apologize for my absence, and offer a bit of an explanation. It's hard to run an online magazine alone, and harder when you're battling your mental heath that's bringing you down, and dealing with a stressful job that you hate.
This magazine used to be the only thing I had as a source of comfort and so I would put all of my free time into it. It also was a place where I could store my passion for rock music, like an archive of my feelings. Over the summer, my passion drifted away with my motivation. I fell into a deep depression that I'm still working my way out of today. However, things have changed - I left my job, started going to the gym more, and eating better. I feel a lot better, it's like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders. This magazine isn't my only source of comfort now, but my love for it is still there.
In my temporary break I have from a day job, I'm making Wild Honey my day job. I'll be throwing myself into it as much as I can, while of course tending to myself and my other hobbies (Animal Crossing, the gym). It feels like starting over again, reintroducing myself because I've changed so much. This summer has been a rollercoaster. The remainder of this year will be better. I plan to get out as much of my photos from this past summer out as fast as I can, along with work from our other team members. I'm also looking to add new members to our team as well over the winter.
Here's to happy days ahead!
with love,
Cherri
