Zinemaking 101

So you’re saying anything can be a zine? We decided to record an “intro to zines” episode, geared towards people who have never made a zine before or are looking to try a new zine form. There’s no prompt new prompt this episode, but we hope some of the zines we discuss will inspire you to make something of your own! We also share an incredible zine made by one of our listeners, based on the prompt “Make your own monster.” A few of the zines featured in this episode Femstatic Zine, edited by Charissa Lucille (https://www.instagram.com/femstatic/) Pity Party Issue 3 (https://www.wizd-az.com/store/p25/PityParty3.html) Happy Sad Times 4, by Rachel Curry (https://www.instagram.com/currycheeks/) Transitioning & Attractiveness, by Birch Rosen (https://www.birchrosen.com/home/t-and-a) Connect with our hosts: Josephine Jaye: https://www.instagram.com/illunispress/ Timothea Haider: https://www.instagram.com/littlepatchofhell This is a public episode.

Make Your Own Monster with Kayla Shaggy

When the world thinks you’re a monster - maybe being a monster is actually something good? After a month off, we’re excited to share our interview with Kayla Shaggy, a Navajo zinester and comic creator. Kayla has been self-publishing zines and comics since 2016. You’ll hear us chat with her about lesbian vampires, anti-colonialist kaiju, and big floofy dogs.

We’ll bring you right along into the fest, and then we’ll share a few of the zines we picked up that we really enjoyed.
