copy. fold. collate. staple. repeat.
All my zines for the upcoming 2013 ABQ Zine Fest are completed. Whoo-hoo!
Well, at least the creative part. Now comes the production part. The copy.fold.collate.staple.repeat. part. This part is kind of tedious. It will be made exciting by my new stapler. And by the pride I feel in having THREE full NEW zines this year, plus THREE full NEW mini-zines. EXCITING!!!
Here’s repertoire of the new ones:
II.II. Zine of the Apocalypse – a full size zine featuring my thoughts around time and humanity, inspired by the turn of the Mayan calendar
II.III.S. Spring-ing, Sprang, Sprung – a mini-zine with a poem and images (the “S” in the numbering system connotes a sporule)
II.IV. Depression – a full size zine with my story of my chronic depression and how art keeps my balanced
II.V. Road Trip – a full size zine about a glorious road trip this summer with my husband; tons of cool photos
II.VI.S. Ornamental Patterns of Feminine Hygiene – a mini-zine with commentary on womanhood
II.VII.S. Haiskoo 9’13 – a mini-zine of poems with scooter ride inspirations
And I’ll have a (small)(few) copies of my two previous zines:
Hopefully you can come out and check out my zines! Saturday, October 5, at the Tannex, 1417 4th Street SW, Albuquerque. A FREE event open to all general public.
passion fueled
the GRAND OPENING of The Tannex, home of the Albuquerque Zine Library was AWESOME!! did you see some of the pix? I posted ’em on my Facebook page … The whole thing was very inspirational and fun and hip and fueled my passion for art and writing and makin’ my zine.
so in March (and maybe some of February; I forgot when I started), I’ve been working on the next long edition of TheZINEsaurus: II.IV. on depression [… see humorous post on the loss of my limbic system …] and I’m hoping to have it finished by the end of April. I updated the time count down widget thing on the right —>
And I have a one page-r poem-art-thing that I will release on May 1 for Masturbation Month that will be for adults only. Honesty expected. No special log in required.
so I’ll keep you posted about zine stuff and randomness in my word world …
hopefully the spring winds are fueling your passions as well!
