Locals Only
Collaborative Project
“Locals Only” was an online fake gossip/gag newsletter created for my neighborhood in Lehi, UT. With a variety of local copywriters, designers, and illustrators, we produced 8 issues bi-monthly on themes that were relevant to the area and the COVID-19 stay-at-home situation. Every article was written by a different writer and received a quality illustration/graphic by a different artist. All the contributors came up with their own pseudonyms to add to the snarky gossip nature, and to protect us from getting our houses TP’d. It was purely for entertainment and caused a lot of healthy ruckus.
I’m probably a little too proud of this project ;)
