Brandon Stosuy and Rose Lazar — "Crying is a cool thing."

Slow Stories

When was the last time you cried? This question is at the heart of Brandon Stosuy and Rose Lazar's illustrated anthology, Sad Happens: A Celebration of Tears. With contributions from a wide range of voices, including Phoebe Bridgers, Zeba Blay, Sloane Crosley, and many more, Sad Happens is a gentle offering that reminds us to get to the heart of our own stories—and our own humanity. 

Off the page, Brandon and Rose have lent this thoughtful sensibility to various endeavors. Brandon is the co-founder of The Creative Independent, "a growing re­source of emo­tional and prac­ti­cal guid­ance for cre­ative peo­ple." Rose is a visual artist and the founder of Cosmic Peace Studio. Together, they are friends, collaborators, and creatives who genuinely understand what it means to tell slow stories. 

In this interview, Brandon and Rose shared more about Sad Happens, their collaboration and friendship, the places they've left behind, the processes they embrace in their respective work, and why slowness is a recurring thread in all they do. This episode also opens with a story from Lexi Kent-Monning.
