Hi there Denise,
You can make it as personal as you like (or even keep it anonymous if it concerns you). I really like the idea. It's nice to read what other people are going through/thinking when you were doing/thinking the same things at some p...
I have to say, this site has been a boon as far as receiving fresh new reading material from people I never would have encountered otherwise. Trading zines has never been so simple!! I believe this to be a fine and fancy site, something I can drop...
A PO Box is key. I am not comfortable giving out my real address either but if you want to participate in the larger self publishing conversation, you're going to want to have a place where people can send you stuff.
i used to live in a small town, but even though i've moved closer to the city, i still mostly only distribute my zine through the mail. i've found that sending my zines out for review and trying to get them carried by distros is a really good way ...
my zine has a myspace page and i've met a lot of the people from here on there and we trade that way.
i was also the venus zine reader of the week so that got me a little attention but not really any more sales.

you could try sending to one of the zine distros?
http://www.allthumbspress.net/zineinfo.html is a page written by Keg de Souza that I came across last week (apparently it was written for a zine commissioned by Sydney's Museum of Contemporary Art...
I started out by trading with other people all over the world. It got me pen pals, new zines and new readers. I traded fliers with other zines to send out with orders, sent my zines to places for reviews, and to distros for consideration. I sent s...
So I've recently finished my first official zine[pic below]. yay! I've only done 10 initial prints so far, so if you are interested, convo me :)

New Project: NYMPHOIDS' SURVIVAL GUIDE
So because I've already finished my 2nd story a while back (still awaiting publication), I've decided to start on a new project. It's Nymphoids' Survival Guide. It should be a survival guide for girls (inside and out :P, no discrimination here loves!), including some fashion guides and DIY projects to look amazingly awesomely cool without breaking the bank, boy/girl problems, school/work stress, and everything about us girls/ladies/ women! XD from stories to advice to photos or original artwork… Continue

Nymphoids: Disambiguation
Okay, so before I tell you about my new project, someof you might be wondering why I call my zine and almost everything Nymphoid(s). Well, when I was trying to think of a name for my first zine, I was at first cinsidering more generic names... since it was a heart break series... i was thinking of cheesy names... but you see, that isn't like me at all. I like metphores, hidden meanings and such things...
So I was like, I need somethign that can represent everything that I will write about in th… Continue

- Hello there! How are you? I just came across your page, and if you don't mind I'd love to send you a letter! Or, at the very least, I'm also interested in purchasing a copy of your zine! Well, that's all for now! Hope you have a great evening!

Chantel G. said… - Just wondering if the zine I contributed to has been completed. (The broad theme was being drunk, I believe.) Can't wait to read it. Do I still get a contributor's copy? If so, let me know if you need my mailing address.

Whip-ette said… - hello!
whip is basically the first zine i've ever made and in it are pictures and poetry (and a couple of short short stories) that my friends have done - it's just an outlet for people who write. i'm sure you know how hard it is sometimes for people to see your work - and i think it's a really good thing to have loads of different writers together, to play off each other's ideas and just to make a group of people who are writing because we CAN. our next issue is going in a slightly different direction - its creative theme is far stronger and we're hoping to make hundreds of copies to go up and down the country (and to other countries! - i have friends in berlin and aix-en-provence...) so we get more exposure and as such more people are encouraged to write. oh, and if you want to contribute then you're more than welcome - short short stories (600 words-ish, it's an a6 zine) or poetry on the theme of living in places.
your nymphoids survival guide sounds so good! i'd love to see it when it comes out!
to get a copy of whip we do trades really - if you want to trade anything - zines, mail art, postcards - you know, all the lovely ephemera, then let me know and we can trade! what's your first zine about?
excellent.
