Hi!

I'm Loz and my zine is RAISE YOUR HAND. RAISE YOUR VOICE.

This is my first zine and hopefully the first of many! The main theme of the zine is art and culture, with an underlying riot grrl element (how could it not?)

I'm currently a "mature" student at Leeds College of Art and Design and I'm studying Visual Communication.

My other interests are vegetarianism, knitting (badly!), world cinema, japanese animation (whoop whoop studio ghibli), baking, photographing everything, music, gigs, feminist literature, illustration (obviously!), printmaking, playing guitar.............

Happy to do zine swapsies just as soon as Issue #1 is finished :)

all work and no play

Argh!

It's been such a busy couple of weeks for me lately at work that i haven't had much time to do anything creative! it's such a pain having to work full time whilst doing a college course, prepping for an exhibition and finishing this first zine, but i guess i have to pay my bills!

Apart from the stress and lack of sleep I'm feeling pretty positive and happy :)

Now i'm focussing on college and this zine which luckily my tutors have said i can use it as one of my projects and therefore inc… Continue

Issue #1 theme

I was thinking today that I should really have a set theme to keep me focussed on the zine as i have so many other things going on right now in the real world.

So........The theme will be about following your dreams as this last year I've just returned to art college and it's been a struggle to juggle everything (ooo stuggle to juggle.....may use that phrase!) Also I would be good for anyone that is stuck in a mundane job like I am and wants to do something different. So I guess issue #1 will b… Continue

bad knitter

I like knitting, but I'm really bad at it.........

........what would make it really fun, would be a stich 'n' bitch group here in Leeds.

So, if there are any keen knitteratti out there, beginners or pro's - get in touch and we should start a weekly meet in a coffee shop or maybe the common place?

Hiya, I just noticed your comment on the Manifesta Distro page about your order. We've been eaten alive by the distro over the past couple of months, but we had an email checking session at the weekend, and your order was one of the ones we sorted. I'm sure Emily from the distro will email you about it asap. Sorry for the delay, and thank you so much for being so patient. We're not usually so slow, but just totally snowed under at the mo!
Glad to know there's more zinesters in Leeds :)
