I think that I am done with zine writing. I have issue 3 which has been ready to go forever. I still need to get it checked and printed. When I do I'll probably send it out for free to anyone who has traded with me. I'd like to know what people think even though it will be my last copy. Continue

Issue 3 is written, I just need to get it checked and printed. I've been a bit naff and life (and a bad back and neck as well as rescuing dogs) has got in the way. I lost my VA VA VOOM hopefully I'll get back too it soon. Continue

Hey people who have asked for trades I will get on to it next week once I am off work for 2 weeks - woo hoo and have hopefully got new recue greyhounds and settled them in.

Issue 2 is not great in terms of grammar and there are a few commas missing, particularly in the last article, sorry if this ruined it for anyone, I will try harder with issue 3 and get it proof read!!!

All zines that have been requested are now in envelopes.

I am hoping to send them tomorrow (If I get chance!!! - work is full on and I plan to do a mad dash in my lunch hour - if I get one)

Everything is on hold. My beloved Dog Penny had to be put down. I'm gutted understandably. I've had her since I was 15 :(

On top of that my uncle has gone into a hospice work is crazy so don't expect me to be around for a while.

Once issue 2 - "Am I Loud Enough" is printed I'll be up for trades.

Take care all

I've just got back into zines after a ridiculous amount of time. I was inspired by Hannah of 'Not Lonely' zine.

Back in the day (when I was a fairly hard core Manics Fan) I used to write a zine with my sister called "Love In A Make-Up Bag" which was a mixture of poetry, music and general rambling.

>My new zine is a perzine entitled 'If Things Don't Alter They'll Stay As They Are". Issue 1 - 'Behing Blue Eyes' is… Continue
