ZUZU’S HAUS OF CATS & THE LITTLE WOBBLES PRESENT
If you're anything like me, you feel everything dialled up to eleven, and these days there's rather a lot to feel. The news. The state of things. The seemingly constant horrors. Some days the darkness can feel all-encompassing.
So here's my small mutiny against all that. Every weekday for three weeks in November, I - assisted by my dear friends the Little Wobbles - will send you one little light. A poem. A piece of art. Something to marvel at. A bit of good news you’ve probably missed.
Nothing that asks anything of you - just proof, arriving daily, that it's still worth being here.
Because I don't believe joy is frivolous. It’s not inappropriate in the face of hardship, or something you have to earn the right to. I believe it's the thing that keeps us going - it’s not a distraction from the work, it’s the thing that makes the work sustainable. Joy is the point. Joy, actually, is resistance.
Each light is delivered by a Little Wobble - a tiny magical cat-shaped sprite, channelled from beyond the veil (and materialised in pigment and glitter) to take care of us all in times of need.
Just pop your email in below and we’ll take care of the rest.
One email every weekday for three weeks to brighten your days, from Monday November 9th to Friday November 27th.

Who's behind the lights?
I'm Zuzu (aka Eli Trier) - a queer AuDHD artist, writer and founder of Zuzu's Haus of Cats, where I make work that celebrates otherness and reminds you that you're not the odd one out, you're one of a kind. My artwork's in private collections worldwide, my ideas have turned up in award-winning books, and this November my work's being exhibited at the UN. My weekly newsletter is the stuff of legend, and has been described as "a safe space to be exactly who you are" - which is basically my life’s mission 😜.
I read ten books a week (the only hint of savant-ism my autism has given me), snort when I laugh (it’s adorable!), and might actually be a pile of cats in a sparkly trench coat.
