Memento Mori Ink is the evolution of House of Stitched Magazine. Since our merger with the powerhouse known as Crystal Lake Publishing, led by Joe Mynhardt, we have brought our passion for the arts to life on the page, celebrating the voices of indie creatives. As the owner and editor-in-chief, my vision is simple: to educate, entertain, and immerse you in our world of the weird and, at times, the macabre.
I’m not here to curate art for “trends”. I’m here to amplify work which challenges, unsettles, and inspires. With over 15 years in the industry, the work I’ve done behind the scenes has always had one goal in mind: to build a platform where creators and audiences connect through a shared love of the dark, the unusual, and the beautifully defiant.
Memento Mori Ink isn’t just a magazine. It’s a reminder: life is brief, but what we create can echo into eternity.
We are yours in darkness,
Lisa Vasquez
