Anonymous asked: What are you creating these days? What has been on your mind?
My creative process is a bit scattered, because I’m basically always processing and don’t always remember to slow down. Things got really busy with Kickstarter and my 2013 planners and shipping a ton of stuff and so right now I am working on slowing down, drinking tea, trying to “be a good boyfriend” so this great new part of my life doesn’t slip away. Exploring offline ideas (like “eat more vegetables” and “drink less coffee” and “what if yoga helps you feel good”) and other good, healthy life stuff like that.
Otherwise, I’m keeping busy and happy with my SOMEDAY MY PRINTS WILL COME club, which is in of itself an exercise in slowness, positive messages, and collaborative engagement. I’ll also have a table at the Brooklyn Zine Fest in April, so there will be new good things to have in time for that, a new HOME-BREW from me, more postcards and tokens, and one or two collaborative projects to start thinking about soon. :)
Anonymous asked: Hi Adam, I have a question for you. What is the best place to get a pizza slice in New York. I'm going for my first time in March :) Also, if you wouldn't mind recommending a few things you think I should check out to really captivate the New York experience. I would really appreciate it! If you're too busy, that's fine too. I understand. Have a lovely day. X
Nobody ever asks me questions about life in New York, which I am usually pretty grateful for because I don’t really know how to answer them. I’ve been here for 8 months and it feels like 1, somehow. In New York years I was born tomorrow or next week, basically. The best place to get a pizza slice is probably anywhere.
I like Vinnie’s because there are a lot of vegan options so anybody can eat it and it’s like a fifteen minute walk from my apartment. But there’s dollar pizza everywhere and it’s pretty good for a dollar. There’s free pizza with drink purchase at a lot of bars. FREE! Some people swear by Artichoke but the other day I was right near there and there was an entire slice facedown on the sidewalk and I prefer to internalize that as “someone hated their pizza so much that they threw it on the floor.” Pizza in New York is like pizza in any other city. When it’s awesome, it’s awesome. When it’s shitty, it’s still kind of awesome. People will tell you that the pizza here is just better. I am not that guy. I don’t know the fucking difference. The best pizza is wherever you stop at your hungriest, when you only have 3 dollars in your pocket, and you’re with a friend.
Same goes for basically everything in this city. I don’t know how to help you captivate the New York experience because I can’t curate your experience I can only speak to my own. Life doesn’t happen in a plan or on a schedule. A good way to do it might be to plan 1 big thing that matters to you (shopping, a museum, a landmark, etc) in the morning and evening and let your food choices happen by accident. Have a random cup of coffee wherever you are at. It will probably be good enough. Have lunch from a cart or just eat a pretzel for lunch. It’s not going to be the best pretzel in the world but you will be in New York City eating a soft pretzel, that is your postcard moment.
All that being said, my favorite donut in New York is Peter Pan in Greenpoint. I love Prosperity Dumpling in Chinatown because it is dirt cheap and so good. I like brunch at Saxon + Parole or Habitat (both have bloody mary bars), and I really, really like The Bagel Store. Oh, and back to pizza, Slice Harvester might have your back.

Again, in my intense and naive brain, I think communication means actually speaking to each other, in more than 140 characters, and out loud ~ not on a computer screen or through email. As explained to me, if I send it electronically, it is more tasteful because then the person has the choice to read it when they are ready or simply delete. These things never occurred to me. I don’t know how to ignore people. I imagine that my mental and emotional life would be simpler if I could, but this is not the way I was made.
