I visited the Independent Publishing Resource Center yesterday--not to check out zines from their superfluous library, but to actually work on a zine!  Imagine that!  It appeared that a lot of the people there couldn't.  Granted, I know the "independent" part of the name means you're supposed to go DIY, but some people skills with the folks there would have proved for a much productive and friendly visit.  Sometimes I wonder: Is this just how writers are?  Wrapped up in their own work and…

first issue. half-size, 22 pages, $1, stamps, or trade. probably don't mail me a dollar because canada post employees like to supplement their wages where they can (just like anyone else). your best bet is to find me at a show (in brandon or on tour elsewhere in canada) or stalk me at work (please don't i'm paranoid enough as it is) or to mail some stamps, or to trade your own zine.

For my latest work in…

Hair is one of the most interesting zines around. Using only the subject of human hair as a premise, they create a wonderfully interesting and drop dead gorgeous zine. Then they only make a few and they sell out and become collector's items (at least that's my guess as to what they're doing). Last issued they peaked everyone's interest by interviewing Tobi Vail of Bikini Kill fame…

Hello!



I am a new member of We Make Zines, and am starting up a new (hopefully regular) zine called Manifesto. The zine is essentially going to be full of articles, opinion pieces, interviews, non fiction, rants, art, true stories and other writing pieces which express what you feel about the world. I'm looking to launch the first issue in the middle of March, and am looking for people to contribute.



In regards to specifics:
