I do a zine about language called The La-La Theory, and I've made a number of other zines over the years, mostly poetry collections and other kinds of one-offs. You can read other things I've written on my website or look at pictures and descriptions of some of my zines at my etsy shop.

Hi, thanks about the comments about my name and my zines' names. I'll have to see the situation to check about if I can do trades right now (I won't go into details), just leave me a comment to remind me.
I'm not doing too badly ta. Been working at the university all summer(affter graduating in June). The pays okay and the work isn't too boring so its worked out okay. Only temporary though so looking for something more long term!
Southampton is actually having its own zine fest! Though I'm not involved with it because I may no longer be here...though its onlya fortnihgt after my job finishes so I may be!
Other than that its pretty much same old same old for me.

I've recently fallen in love with reviewing zines, I love doing it. I have such a plethora of good ones and I feel like I should be trying my best to introduce them to other people too. Of course, yours are always among my favourites because they are so well-written and so different from the others. I'm really excited to show yours to my boyfriend - we talk about language a lot, because his first language is French and I am currently learning how to speak French. He writes poetry and has talked about translating works in the future, so I know he'll find The La-La Theory (especially #7) quite fascinating.
Louise, I think poking around the university is a great idea. You'll surely find some people there who know about zines or who write or make drawings or photographs who could be encouraged into making a first zine, even. I've started doing a zine ...
Why hello everyone, thanks for remembering and mentioning me. I'll friend you, Meaghan, and even if I'm not the one you want it's still nice to meet you.

Lol. I'd love to trade with you. I am a fairly new zinester so forgive me for the lack of word content in my zines.
