Nichole commented on Shannon Fargel's blog post Dipping my toes into the zine-making water..."I agree with Trashy & Obsessive on buying Stolen Sharpie Revolution. It's updated in its second edition. I think you can get it on Etsy for $5.
I'm pretty new with zines myself, and I learned a lot from making my first one, especially…"
"thanks! i'm still testing different methods and things, but the info's been a help. i've defintely learned the error of my glueing ways. ;)"
Tee Rex commented on Shannon Fargel's blog post Dipping my toes into the zine-making water..."oh nice! i just do mine on my home printer at the moment - using the copier function and even THAT manages to chomp off the sides!"
Saling Pusa Distro/closed commented on Shannon Fargel's blog post Dipping my toes into the zine-making water..."interestingly enough, the copier in my university doesnt cut any of my sides... it even shrinks the copy by like id, 1-2% which leaves a bout a 1/8 in margin that i always like cutting off.

Saling Pusa Distro/closed commented on Shannon Fargel's blog post Dipping my toes into the zine-making water..."I may not be the best person to give an advice since I am relatively new too, but if there is one thing that I have learned through my many trial-and-errors is that, zine-making is some sort of a jouney... you find the style the works for YOU and…"
Dipping my toes into the zine-making water...
Don't know if you get many people on here just entering into the whole dipping-my-toes-into-the-water phase of zine making/reading (i'm attempting to do both) but my first attempt at making my own zine turned out...let's just say, amateurish. Truthfully, i mishmoshed it all together collage-style (clippings from magazines and papers) in two days, and put it together with a paper-mache-like glue, and thread binding.I tackle things headlong and without finesse.Anyway, the point of this my first…See More
