Oops... I've done the zine challenge before (last year) so this year I just assumed I remembered all the rules. So my zine isn't quite long enough... I'm going to have to try again some other time this month with a new topic :)

@Betty, yes, participants can choose any consecutive 24 hour period during the month of July to create a 24 hour zine. There's no specific day, it just has to be completed by midnight on July 31st.

So, I still don't really understand, even after looking at the website. Do people individually just choose a random day during the month and say they are going to get it done that day? Or is everyone supposed to do it during a designated 24 hour period?

neither doll houses nor tree houses: on living outside of the gender binary

finished in under 24 hours for the chicago zine fest, this zine focuses on the ups and downs of finding myself outside of the gender binary and attempts to both de- and re-construct various questions about my own gender as well as gender in general. three separate sections discuss feeling pushed out of femininity, how masculinity is viewed as inherent and femininity is viewed as a fictitious performance, how striving for the “perfect balance” of two genders is not plausible nor an adequate solution, acceptance or tolerance (or neither) that i feel in specific spaces, how my radical friends misgender and disrespect me more often than my non-radical ones, the (non-) accessibility of queer jargon and language, how coming out has garnered me the most intense gender assumptions yet, dealing with friends who don’t “get it”, my desire to validate my own identity without stepping on the identity of others, and checking white privilege. 32 pgs, ½ size, b&w. $2-3 or trade. message me or e-mail youvegotafriendinpa (at) gmail (dot) com for more info!

I just joined, so I'm a bit late at posting my 24-hour zine. It was created on July 2, 2011 and is an ode to my least favorite art supply- the oil pastel crayon.

My zine pretty much met my criteria: more art than writing. It's a little perzine-y, a lot Jawbreaker-y heh. It's got a little color on pretty much every page.

 

If anyone would like to trade, email me at sxretton at gmail dot com. I'll also gladly accept $2, which you can send to PO Box 391, Madera, CA 93638.

you’ve got a friend in pennsylvania #5 is now finished!

having worked at in a warehouse for the past month and a half, i’ve spent a lot of time within a “boys’ club” environment. daily struggles with hearing racist and sexist bullshit and making attempts to challenge the mindsets of those around me have left me defensive and drained. this zine, done in 24-ish hours for the dc zine fest, is about resisting militant masculinity on the job, learning how to more effectively call out shitty behavior, and how i have created a safer space for myself (and hopefully some others) at work. b&w, 1/4 size, 20 pages. includes original photography by yours truly! $1 or trade. if interested, please send me a message or e-mail youvegotafriendinpa(at)gmail(dot)com
