II.II. Zine of the Apocalypse

EUREKA!

Standard

Posting each page as its own Image Post enables viewers to see the page in all its detailed glory!

I don’t like that you have to read a ba-jillion posts to see the whole thing.

Publishing a zine one page at a time on the internet isn’t the same as a beautiful color replica – or the fantabulous original.

It’s a way to share my ideas, collages, thoughts, art, stuff.

I’m working with what I got, here.

Zoom Fail

Standard

So, I’m disappointed in the gallery of the first 8 pages. As it is now, the viewer can’t zoom in on the pages. And some of the uniqueness of TheZINEsaurs is in the details. Later I’ll work on an album or something where you can zoom in.

Aside

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. …

zine’in’

excited about Saturday

and it’s done!!

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.

Aside

My zine is listed on the tablers for the upcoming 2012 ABQ Zine Fest.

SOOOOOOOOOO cool to see the official-ness!
