Here. In My Head. #11: A 24-Hour Zine (24 pages, 8" x 3"): 50p

This was created for the 24 Hour Zine Thing, and features pieces on being creative, self-esteem and self-empowerment, contraception, minor annoyances, and small pleasures.

Here. In My Head. #10: The University Years (40 pages, 1/2 sized): £1.20

Inside, I write about living away from home, academia, making friends, the Student’s Union, and graduation.  It’s mostly a collection of stories about my experiences, but there’s also some practical advice for students and would-be students, and lots of lists. 

Here. In My Head. #9 (48 pages, 1/4 sized): £1.00

Inside, I write about technology, thealogy (goddess worship), common anti-feminist arguments, and being a graduate.  There's also some lists and similarly fluffy little things scattered throughout.

Here. In My Head. #8 (38 pages, 4.25" x 4.25"): £1.00
Written for the zine anthology published by Planned Parenthood of Northern New England. Inside, I write about blood, sex, abortion, religion, choice, shame, and growth. 

 

Here. In My Head. #7 / Your Pretty Face is Going Straight to Hell #14: (52 pages, 1/4 sized): £1.00

A split-zine with Miss Tukru. Inside, I write about being a shy girl, how to cope with the oppressive norms of feminine appearance, self-help advice, and personal development. Tukru writes about roller derby, Typical Grrls, her job, 2010 being a shitty year, and resolutions for 2011.

 

Here. In My Head. #6: (36 pages, 1/3 sized): £1.00

An alphabet zine, with a wide variety of topics including Body, Feminism, Hair, Ire, Memories, Noise, Piano, Serendipity, University, Vulva, Wales, and Xmas!

 

Here. In My Head. #5: (38 pages, 1/4 sized): £1.00

Features written pieces on girl-hate, beauty, self-loathing and personal growth, the dynamic nature of love, feminist book recommendations, and trying to reconcile my personality with my feminist beliefs.

 

Here. In My Head. #4: (40 pages, 1/4 sized): £1.00

Features written pieces on the importance of friendships, casual sexism and rape-based humour, jealousy and feminism (and my ongoing battle with jealousy), creativity and happiness.
