who runs a zine of their own??
post about it here, the title, main topic of zine, links if you have a site/myspace, so anyone interested in trade can contact you ^_^
i'm nearly finished my first issue..will post once it's complete!!
Well I have a half-ready grrrl-zine named revolution is my grrrlfriend. I don't find much time to get it ready. But well I got a few pages to make fun of skinny fashion modeling and the beauty ideals behind it. Skinny models who just quit their jobs to become riot grrrls instead. I cut out pics of models from ads in magazines and then put food in their hands so they look as if they were eating pizza, big pieces of cake, lots of ice-cream or giant lollipops.
There will be some more addbusting in it.
Plus some self drawn story about a girl empowering herself against her abusive father.
Mine is in the works as well and hopefully will be out in a couple of weeks, since I'm traveling up Northeast into Maine from the end of July into August.
The title is Hazlo Tu Mismo (it means "do it yourself" in Spanish) and it will mostly encompass articles on various topics such as feminism, anthropology, social issues, etc. It will also have book reviews, music reviews and interviews with bands as well as people in the community.
The first issue so far has an interview with the grind band Phobia, an interview with a friend who was socialized in Spain then came to the US and joined the Marine Corps, articles about the word cunt, Christopher Colombus, and why I will never marry, as well as pieces of artwork from local budding sources. For trade opportunities, I can be e-mailed at devotchka_darling@ hotmail.com :D
I made several zines over the years. Zerospace, You're Insane Honey, i know you're out there. The ones that are still in print are Cerveauxxx, an undead persona and the cousin zine. Cerveauxxx is a zombie compilation zine, where lots of people contribute zombie-esque pieces. an undead persona is my personal zine, which is about my life and observations and such. the cousin zine is a compzine I did with my cousins. I also run a zine distro called Gimme Brains!!! Distro.
i write the zine called 'pulse' i describe it as a zine about 'life, feminism and learning to love yourself' i just printed issue 7! message me if you are interested in getting a copy!!!
I write a personal zine called Introvert which is available in my distro: Click Clack Distro I also carry tons of zines that cover lots of topics such as mental health, DIY/How-to, personal etc.
