Profile Information

what it is

Hi--I'm Laura-Marie. I live in Sacramento, California and have been making zines for 22 years now. I have a handful of zines available for trade. Just let me know what you're interested in and what your address is, and we can arrange something.

I have a mental health zine called functionally ill that's on issue 14. I have a poetry zine called hat genius that's on issue 2. I have an activist zine Demonstrators on Roadway. I have an unsent letters zine called Fish Letters. And I have a few other zines too.

You can read my blog at http://dangerouscompassions.blogspot.com/. It has links to many zine-related websites, which might interest you.

All my zines are available for trade, so don't be shy.

good wishes to all,
Laura-Marie

my overview of SF Zine Fest 2010

Posted on September 7, 2010 at 10:38am 0 Comments 0 Likes

I woke up excited! We drove to the Oakland BART station and parked. We

took BART to Embarcadero and then got on MUNI metro, N line, to Golden

Gate Park. First we ate Indian food for lunch. (I'd called my friend J

to invite her, but she was already having lunch with different

friends.)

Then we headed to the zine fest! I was excited knowing that eventually we would run into Jen and MC of ButterSword fame. We entered the Fair… Continue
