A new interview with the DIY Conspiracy website discusses the Positive Influence Fanzine Anthology and how DIY ethics have continued to fuel my entire career from music to vidcasting to cookbook creation. I also talked about some of the difficulties I experience as a female creator in a male dominated world, my transition from vegetarian to vegan, as well as the difference in the fanzines I created post Positive Influence days. Quite a few images are shared in this well crafted feature, as well as a link to my Positive Influence Playlist on Spotify. Read Anji Bee: The Story of Positive Influence Zine on DIY Conspiracy.

The concept was both being inspired by Posicore music and trying to inspire others in return. As I talked about in my intro, I was living in a fairly dark time and wasn’t in the best life circumstances, either. My partner Buster was going through a lot of personal stuff, as well. I thought this project would be a good way for us to channel our energies in a positive direction, to have something to work on outside of our jobs to give our lives meaning and purpose. I wanted to be a part of the scene, meet the bands, and have interactions with people at shows. Sharing our thoughts about the music, the venues, and the scene itself gave us much needed connection.
