A friend got back into zines recently after a hiatus and that announcement sparked something inside of me -- zines! What the hell have I been doing with the past couple of years, when's the last time I even TOUCHED a zine, let alone wrote one? Dusty typewriter, dried up glue sticks, stickers and paper and magazine scraps wasted, thoughts wasted, letters…

If you've ever taken a Greyhound bus, chances are you have a story worth telling. For years before I ever set foot on a Greyhound, I'd heard people make jokes about "the kinds of people" who ride the buses. I dismissed their comments as classist snobbery...until the first time I stepped into a Greyhound bus station. It was like stepping into a universe filled with people who had no sense of social boundaries or patience for small talk. Immediately, I was… Continue

Do realise that it might take some time to send them out, but they'll go out for sure!

 

Secondly, I wanted to announce my new blog,…

I just found a bunch of old zine content I'd dictated into a micro-recorder in 2006. Interesting stuff....

when i first punked out,i had a hard time fitting in at shows.i didnt have any money for cool threads,or dope or import records or anything.i couldnt get in unless i crashed the door.it seemed like punks were all a bunch of rock stars or something.the first time i saw sniffin glue,i thought it was cool,especially because it was so crappy and funny.i always thought art and punk had a strong connection,and that sniffin glue really brought it together.stop! was a local free paper that was… Continue

Hi! I am working on the latest edition of The Flaneur, an indie culture paper/zine. If anyone has any short articles they would like to submit, on art, culture, humour then please send them to editor@flaneur.me.uk  . We're also looking for reviews, poems or short stories. We like to publish a couple of articles that are not in English, so if you have any in any foreign language that would also be great. But mainly English!
