It's called Bumper Sticker Shine, but it's origin is secret for now. The first in the series, Dry Ice Dreams, was named after the pursuit of writing and publishing fulltime, which, though once a dream, is now a reality, but one needed to be handl...

My old zine was "10 Things Jesus Wants You To Know." The night my friends and I were planning out our zine and picking a name, I went and bought beers. Some Jesus freak handed me a pamphlet on the street entitled "4 Things Jesus Wants You To Know....

My pinball zine is titled Skill Shot because that is a feature on many of the newer pinball machines. It's also based on some of the earlier pinball zines like Multi-Ball and Drop Target. Plus it's a catchy phrase. Chicken With Penis first starte...

I think I'm going to call mine Lone Sock Digest, just for fun.

Musea, it's a zine on the arts, so its based on the 9 Muses.

Best Available is kind of an inside joke from the real estate world where both of us work. I won't bore you with the details, but it's a pretty specific term for only our little corner of the real estate universe. In our division, people will jump...

I consider zine production to be therapy for me, and a sunk medical cost.... That said, I pretty much just give away copies of my Haiku a Day zine, including mailing out a few dozen each month to friends and other zinesters. My more conventional z...

I'm having to charge for my latest zine - strictly no trades or freebies, for the first time ever. It just cost too much to print, and is big so postage costs too much, for me to do it for free. Does anyone else feel really guilty for charging fo...

yeah. It's between Lone Sock or ISO 1600. The problem is Lone Sock only works if I do a collection of one shots, and I might not do that.

Each one of my zines have had a different name. The last one I called "Paper Rat C" as a play on the word poperatzi. It was/is all about paper.

There is nothing wrong at all with charging for something you've worked hard to create.

I write one-shots, so each one has a different title. The latest one is called "Potentially Heartwrenching Distractions." I named it after a conversation I had with a friend about my then-current dating adventure, which was quickly going awry. He ...

Lone Sock is GREAT!

My zine is titled "extinctions" since the personas and concepts of my zine are in attempt at 'preservation' of lost america...the existence just outside the normative. such as junkies, prostitutes, glory hole lovers, truck stop poets, desert exile...

And it starts...
sometime around midnight
or at least that's when
you lose yourself
for a minute or two

As you stand...
under the barlights
and the band plays some song
about forgetting yourself for a while
and the piano's this melancholy soundcheck
to her smile
And that white dress she's wearing
you haven't seen her
for a while

But you know...
that she's watching
She's laughing, she's turning
she's holding her tonic like a crux
The room suddenly spinning
she walks up and asks how you are
so y… Continue

Hali complains some more!

What is up in my life right now:

This weekend has just been brutally unsatisfying. It seems like there's nothing to do around here a lot of the time, and that's the worst feeling ever. Fighting with friends, having severe writers block, being totally unproductive.. it's all just kind of a giant drag, and I hope SOMETHING good happens soon.

On a happier note, I finally got my desk cleaned off, I'm getting closer and closer to thinking of a zine title every day, and I'm not sick despite the fact… Continue
