Yep. Working on the next issue.

I’ve got a theme and some of the ideas. Don’t have a story yet. There may not be a story.

Maybe the story will develop as I’m working on the zine.

Then again, maybe not.

I’m having fun with my scissors and my glue, though.

And I know what recipe that I’m going to include. …

I created the PayPal button tonight and pasted the code onto the “Obtain” page. And stuff happened, but not what was SUPPOSED to happen. I’ll keep working on it.

In the meantime, if you haven’t check out the excerpt from the last edition II.I. On Spiders, Fear, and A Sense of Home.

TheZINEsaurus Issue II.I. – On Spiders, Fear, and A Sense of Home

I’ve completed my copies for the fest on Saturday. And they’re collated [thanks, Mom, for the help!], and they’re stapled [thanks, Elisa, for the loan of the super-duper awesome big stapler!], and my zine-scene bag is packed.

Here’s a preview of the cover …On Spiders, Fear, and A Sense of Home

I am really proud of myself and excited about Saturday. I’ve got three complete zines: the issue from last year, the first issue from this year, and my first mini-zine. The mini-zine is a DIY Iron-On Transfer instruction booklet. It comes free with a purchase of the iron-on transfers that I created! I’ve got one “t-shirt” design at this time. I’m hoping to add a second design for Saturday. We’ll see if I get it done.

Either way, I am PROUD of myself for getting this done and putting myself out there in an official way with my art. Feels pretty good!

if you live anywhere close by and you’re out & about, DROP BY the ABQ Zine Fest 2012, this Saturday, October 6, at the Kosmos Cafe at the Factory on 5th, 1715 5th St NW, Albuquerque, NM.
