In the spirit of the 2022 Literary Conference and Natalie Behring's zine making workshop, we wanted to add Antlerphile by Zoby and Behring as a source of diving into wilderness and finding inspiration to write and create. The following are pages from a zine created by Zoby and Behring that documents the May 1st Opening Day of antler shed season in Wyoming.
