New Issue Announcement thread!

[Andrew Culture]

I know we're all going to do it, so I guess we could keep it neat and tidy by putting it all in one thread. So here goes, JUST post about your new issue in this thread, don't discuss or reply, that way new members can easily see what output we're all responsible for!

[Rae Logios]

i've posted this over on lj a few places so i hope you don't mind a repeat ...

basically, i'm back into making zines after a four-year hiatus. the new thing i've got going on is called recinerated, and i'm currently taking preorders for issue #1.

issue #1 (subtitled "written in reverse") is 48 black & white photocopied quarter legal-sized pages, a fairly text-heavy perzine on navigating the obstacle course called growing up, existential crises aplenty, work-related misanthropy, and assorted other mundane fits of bellyaching. probably not my best work ever, but i'm a little rusty after a four-year absence from zinedom.

an excerpt: “the way i figure it, sartre got it wrong - hell isn’t necessarily other people. hell is working in a mall and dealing with other people.”

$3 stateside or $4-5 (sliding scale) to the rest of the world, postage paid. a trade is fine too.

all preorders will also receive a FREE copy of letters from the bottom of the world, a oneshot mini i made but never printed over the summer.

this is my actual first zine in about four years, a short collection of epistles scribbled out one day during the summer while i should’ve been working instead. i regret nothing.

an excerpt: "i miss when we used to talk, make plans about someday living together, discuss music and film and the little things in our lives that really matter. i miss having a best friend. i miss having a constant. i miss you.

but i don’t miss you enough to keep holding my breath and waiting for you to notice i’m here."

letters ... stands at 24 eighth legal black & white photocopied pages. one copy ships free with an order of recinerated #1, but if you'd rather have a copy all on its own, that'll only set you back a mere dollar, postage paid, shipping anywhere in the world.

distro consideration copies of both titles are also available on request.

ordering info is as follows:

paypal to inheritdark at gmail dot com; well-concealed cash can be mailed to Rae//p.o. box 8023//omaha, ne 68108-0023//usa.

and if anyone wants to trade zine fliers, that'd be cool too.

SORRY MY FIRST POST HERE IS SO TL;DR GUYS. HI. o/

Hey everyone! My first post - I just joined last night!

Anyway,

The Dirty North - OHNO!THEROBOT #11
60pgs.
$5ppd
Screen-printed covers, hand-numbered out of 55.

"Beyond civilization and reason there is an area of Canada best described as The Dirty North. Comprised of a mix of farmers, trappers, hippies, cultists, half-breeds, coal miners, tree planters and park rangers, the majority of the inhabitants of The Dirty North typically worked jobs that murdered animals and ruined the earth. Even the conservation officers I had met eagerly shared stories about animals such as deer, elk and moose and “popping caps in their asses.”
The Dirty North was essentially its own country, or at least it should have been. Many of the few residents that lived above the 50th parallel operated under their own sovereignty. And the rest of the country didn’t care so long as the North stayed where it was and proper highways were perpetually delayed."

A book about mixed morality and living in constructed social codes beyond those of urbanity and reason. Also, getting really fucked up.

NAIL POLISH MINIZINE #01 | Nov 2010 |

[Hannah (Not Lonely Zine)]

Not Lonely #4
A6 (quarter) sized, 40 pages

The newest issue of my perzine is loosely based around lists of 4. I write about self-esteem, liking "old lady" things, bad habits, the joys of tea, going back on anti-depressants, things I like/dislike in books (as well as a longer list of my favourite books) & pets, amongst other rants & rambles. I wrote most of the zine on an old typewriter, some parts are handwritten & it's all made in cut & paste style with pretty and/or vintage images.

Please take a look at my profile page for details on how to get a copy.

[Persephone Pomegranate]

Reclusive Obscenities Issue #2 - For the Love of Zines
Quarter Size - 30 pages
$3.00 or Trade

Issue Two is a quarter page zine where I discuss my love of zines. Why they’re important to me, why I create them, how they helped me find feminism, learn to cope with my anxiety better, and how they've even saved my life.

You can order the zine at my Etsy shop or email me for trades or other payment options (well concealed cash, paypal, etc)

14 pages long, black and white printed on pink paper, Pretty Pussy! is a minicomic piece on the topic of pubic hair grooming and body image.
Iv been working on it steadily for the past few weeks, had the idea in my head for forever. I wanted to do something feminine and uplifting, and heres what Iv come up with. Tips on hair removal and how to keep your skin clear afterwards of ingrown hairs and rash. While it is of course focused on women, all the tips would work just as well for men who want to shave. :)

Its my first ever zine so Id really like to get it out there! I would love to do some trades if anyone is interested.

Iv also listed it on my ArtFire account for 2.50$

After a lot of effort - first of all in getting hold of the technology, and secondly in painstaking hours of typing, I am proud to present JOURNEYMAN 3 - THE ZX81 ISSUE!

Unlike my mainly-made-on-a-typewriter previous issues, this one was made entirely using a 1981-vintage Sinclair ZX81 computer, and printed using an Alphacom 32 thermal printer of similar age.

It's very difficult to type on a ZX81, and the computer is VERY limited in what it can do - this 16-page zine completely filled the 16K of memory I had available! It's all been made by setting up the pages on the screen and printing each screenful as it goes along. It's made out of a BASIC program over 400 lines long, that's stored using cassette tapes and takes about four minutes to load. :)

Anyway, in this issue, you have...

• Music and TV reviews
• Why I like using old technology
• Some graphics and patterns using the ZX81's awesome 64x44 pixel resolution!
• Camera of the Month - the Olympus XA2

Here it is in its 11cm wide glory:

Note: the first few copies will be printed in blue like this, but once that particular roll of thermal paper runs out, further copies will be printed in slightly more conventional black. :) Please let me know if you're desperate for a blue copy - once that roll has gone, they will all be black...

Available for £1.50 in the UK, £2.00 by airmail to everywhere else in the world. Order using the appropriate button below - please ensure you choose the right postage option.
