Weird Professional Zine No. 2 Features “Walk On The Wild Side”Artwork By Living Dead Girl Nicole 👾✨

If you enjoyed seeing me and so many talented LinkedIn ‘weirdlings’ 👾 featured in the debut issue of the Weird Professional Zine, then you are really going to enjoy what everyone has compiled for Issue No. 2. Not only is there more content than the debut issue, but the zine has sponsors now as well.

For this issue, we were encouraged to design our own page(s), and apparently mine is instantly recognizable because, as so many people have told me, my ‘branding is on point.’ I guess my 15 years of marketing experience finally has its benefits for something on LinkedIn. Now if only those skills could pay the bills and their platform would actually help me land a legit job. 🙃

For my submission I decided to use my “Walk On The Wild Side” portrait I did of Howie Mandel and Maurice from Little Monsters. I felt it really encapsulates the strange fun vibe of the literary mag. Ironically I had submitted my page months prior to getting invited to Howie’s show and getting to meet him, so the universe really was aligned with this one and apparently my intuition was on point as well.

Weird Professional Magazine Issue 2

Here is a how my finished page looks published in the zine….

Weird Professional Magazine Living Dead Girl Nicole Feature

👀 Be sure to give the online version of the whole zine a look through and discover all the weird and wonderful things everyone submitted. It will be available on Flipbook (for 1 year) and you can also purchase a print copy (pre-orders are open until June 1st) as well.

🤩 A big shoutout to our Fellowship Of The Weird Editor-in-Chief, Ambra Hubert 🦄 for continuing to make this literary magazine possible and for giving all of us ‘weirdlings’ 👾 a platform to express ourselves without judgment!

Being a part of unique projects like this is exactly why I love sharing my work publicly.

HUZZAH! I am thrilled to share that Sir Kadean Side Quests has added my artwork to their Realm Marketplace, a curated showcase to give creators a place to share their work and reach new audiences, while offering their side questers a space to discover handmade goods, original art, and independent makers from throughout “the realm”. ⚔️✨

For those not familiar with the Sir Kadean Side Quests, it is a fantasy-inspired community I discovered on Instagram. It was created to help people reconnect with joy, imagination, and purpose in everyday life. What began as a personal response to burnout and unhealthy productivity habits grew into a welcoming space where people can approach life like an adventure through interactive side quests, storytelling, journal prompts, creative challenges, artwork, and community connection. By encouraging reflection, creativity, and self-growth in a fun and approachable way, the project has helped people build healthier habits, rediscover motivation, support independent creators, and feel less alone while navigating life’s challenges.

I am honored to have my work on a website with such a fantastical vision, so please take a moment to check out my featured creator profile under the Illustrations section of the Realm Marketplace. You can also always find it bookmarked along with some of the other spotlights and features of my artwork on the Creature Features page of my portfolio website.

If you are interested in showcasing my work on your website, your next publication, exhibition, or creative venture let’s connect and make some magic together!
