It's an exciting, action-packed thrill-ride that never lets up from start to finish. Then it's all over and you look around wondering what more there is to life.

The Final Grrrls: review

You never know what you find when you look for music on etsy.com. Music isn’t about major labels or even money anymore. I will prove it with my next few reviews.

Hell, with this album its not even about music.

The Final Grrrls are a wordcore band, their headline on myspace proudly proclaims “a wordcore revolution” Being a wordcore girl myself I’m happy about this. The Final Grrrls are just two girls but boy do they pack a huge glittery punch. Its a split album half Jolie Drama (nee… Continue

me. you. and a cup of tea.

ok... so i've been a bit slack in regards to giving the lowdown of my zine activity origins. first up - i hail from australia. i've resided in london town for nee on 5 years now, and wouldn't you know it the year that i decide i'm packing it in and hitting the road again i stumble upon this site and a network of uk zinesters! grrrr.

still slow

I just recently found this site. I'm from Montana, have lived in Alaska, Northern California, and am currently geographically isolated in Northern idaho. I rarely get out to see bands anymore, but when I do, its religious. I spend a lot of time on youtube watching punk/indi shows from the glorious early-to-mid 90's. I hike constantly and often run into interesting animals. When I do, I write about it. I published "Spaghetti dinner and Dancing Fanzine" from 1994-2002. I still randomly publish… Continue

A Poem a Day is READY!

This zine that is ready is the culmination of my writing for the A Poem a Day exercise. It's not the big compilation zine containing work by many poets. This one is just me.

I am asking $2 or cool trade for it. It has over twenty new poems, all by me. It's 22 pages, 8 and 1/2 by 5 and 1/2.

I think it's great! I hope other people will think so too.

To order it, write to me at

Valentine Freebie Project

I spent most of today and all of tonight working on these:

I did not make them because I am selling them or even because I wanted to hand them out (although I will). I mainly made them because I wanted to create a freebie so that you and others can download the pdf and have an inexpensive, unique valentine to give to people, or so that people might be inspired to make their own versions.

It was something I thought about a couple weeks ago and I… Continue

"Who was Arthur Moyse?" by Kris Mininger (from "Going Postal!" #1)

I´ve been seeing the name, and some of the writings of, Arthur Moyse in issues of Peter Good´s "The Cunningham Amendment" for a few years now. Then one day I received with a letter from Peter a page of artwork by Arthur from an old issue of "Anarchism Lancastrium". I liked it so much that I figured the best way to find out more about Arthur was to conduct a brief interview with Dr. Good (by post, of course). Peter was kind enough to pass my questions on to Dave Cunliffe and David Peers, two… Continue

yay---today I put the finishing touches on VISCERA issue 3.

I'm happy with the way my series of zines are progressing but still seeing ways I could make them better.
I've already been working ideas for issue 4....

Poupeé de cire Poupeé de son

I should really improve on my french, and my blogging skillz.

Alas, I'm sitting in the telly room on a saturday night bored out of my mind, while my sister is engrossed in a film about the Jacksons (starring the worst look-alikes I have ever come across) on 'True Movies'. I think we might go to the cinema later, though I don't know what we will see. I saw Valkyrie on Wednesday, and I didn't rate it. The story is fascinating, but seriously, Tom Cruise? The way it was organised was also… Continue

i used to write things down.

i have been editing down recent writings in hopes that i can build a new zine
i'm not sure if i will get a new issue of 'she was ready for anything' pulled together anytime soon, or if i should just get cracking on volume 3 of 'misery is my muse' which is written and in my brain, but not yet in action or published.

someone should tell me to just shut up and make a zine already.
