a place for zinesters - writers and readers

Washington State isn't all about starbucks and rain!

Okay maybe it is...

Anyone else create zines about their hometown?? I'd be happy to trade for some if there are any (:

Well, I haven't actually made zines yet, but I'm excited about connecting!

My zine isn't like focused on my hometown (seattle) but i mention it and there are stories about being in it a lot. does that count?

I think it counts. It helps people feel connected. Like I'm always wondering what it's like to live in a big crowded busy city, and it helps to feel less disconnected when I read even little snippits about the reality.

I agree, I like reading zines about small towns specifically, because that's where I'm from.. The problems are always so much more intimate in those types of zines...
