Thanks, Raven! You answered fabulosly. This is such an amazing thing, I'm turning my 24 hour zine into a monthly project for myself...so Elliot Smith Stabbed Himself In the Heart will be done in 24 hours each month - issue #1 the official July submission, each consecutive month just a big ole' challenge for myself! Thank you so much for creating this!!! <3 hearts! <3 <3

@Deirdree - don't worry about it. Only the master copy of the 24 hour zine has to be completed during the 24 hour period in July - if you need to make extra copies or anything else after that time, that's completely fine!

 

And I know there has been a lot of talk on the forums about how strictly the rules are enforced, etc. Really as long as you create an entire 24 page zine during one consecutive 24 hour period during the month of July, your zine will qualify for the 24HZT, you will receive a pin and have your zine featured on the website. My only big thing is that this cannot be a compilation zine of things you have written over the past year or an art zine of your "best of" from the past few years. Everything that physically goes into the zine must be done within the 24 hour period.

 

Hope that clears some things up, and if you have any questions feel free to post them here or message me!

I only made 13 copies of my 24 hour zine & sent them to all my zine friends so am now out of stock. Would it be cheating to print a second edition to trade with other 24 hour zine people? I didn't know there was trading amongst us! & thank you for the kind email, Raven, re: my Elliot Smith Stabbed Himself In the Heart <3

Today is the last day of the 2011 24 Hour Zine Thing! If you have not completed your zine yet, depending where you are in the world, you still have time to complete it!

reimagining queer community is a personal investigation into my evolving relationship to queerness, as well as some of the ways in which i navigate queer spaces around me. some of the topics in this zine include: alienation and estrangement from the queer community, what it means to feel connected, the myth of a cohesive queer community, being a spectator versus being a participant, (personal and shared) queer histories, and potential strategies to build new alliances.  

this was my first attempt at making a twenty four hour zine. it is 20 pages, 1/4 sized and text heavy. i am asking for $1 or a trade. if you are interested, please email uniunverse@gmail.com.

I have literally never made a zine before, but this can't be any worse than doing NaNoWriMo...

I can answer my own question now. I got an email thanking me for my participation this year so it is officially happening.

Anyone know if it's officially happening this year? I signed up at the site but it hasn't been updated since last year. I'll be doing my first on this year regardless though!!

Hey Friends,

  I was thinking about organizing a 24-hour zine thing in Chicago, but I figured it'd be fun to coordinate it so it was happening on the same day as other cities.  Any body got plans for 2011? International zine month is less than a month away!
