Description

Summary:

The Street Thief returns with a full-frame confession: making a photo zine is beautiful chaos. In this episode Gary Lashmar dives into the year-long brawl behind his new zine Smudge—a second-album project haunted by creative procrastination, deadline dodging, and that inner critic that whispers “not good enough.”

Gary unpacks the late-night edits, the false starts, and the punk realisation that a photo zine only comes alive when you stop waiting for perfect light and hit print. He riffs on how community keeps you accountable, why fear hides inside “productive stalling,” and how finishing matters more than flawless execution.

Whether you’re dreaming up your first photo zine or battling your own creative delays, this episode is your gritty push to finish what you started.
