'Write zines for you, someone will always relate and enjoy it'

Hello, my name is Mel and I write a perzine called Cadillac Girl.  I started writing this zine about 8 years ago, and I started it back up again.  The new issue just came out, June 2012. Please check out the website http://cadillacgirlzine.webs.com .  Not only do I write zines, but I have made a variety of independant films, and was once a member of Womens Work Media Collective, where our films were showcased over the east coast.  I'm excited to get back into my zine and hope to expand more with it.

For You.

As the holidays and the New Year is approaching, I just want to thank everyone for supporting the zine.  As some of you may know, the lastest issue of Cadillac Girl came out this year after an 8 year break. I'm so happy to have started it up again and I couldn't have done it without the support of readers, contributors, fans, reviewers, friends...everyone.  I have met some wonderful people and I can't wait to see what 2013 brings (issue four is in the making). So to everyone...Thank you and…See More

"Search postal locations around your area, all post offices offer different prices.  My local town's post office has expensive PO Boxes, but the town next to me had them for half the price my town was charging for. "
