zines
Zines are DIY self-published magazines created for passion and community (not profit or clout!) Stemming from punk, underground, fandom, and activist subcultures, they’re an accessible way to share your feelings, thoughts, skills, or art with the world!
Some zines are assembled by hand — cut-n-paste’d, collaged, handwritten — while others are made using computer software or online programs. They’re typically reproduced using a copy machine (but not always!) and then bound by-hand with staples or thread (again, usually — but not always!)

Anyone can make a zine and they can be about almost any subject and can feature all sorts of content: words, art, wisdom, ramblings, facts, fictions… the sky’s the limit.
Zines are one of my favorite things; they are little vehicles for self-expression that exist outside the confines and restrictions of the system. From this page, you can check out zine-making resources and tutorials, browse my zines as inspiration, learn about trading titles, and read reviews of DIY creations that I’ve enjoyed.
