Who knows how long it takes to make a zine???

Ideas are like seeds or germs, depending on your outlook.  Once they find some fertile soil they get nice a comfy and set about growing and propagating. My upcoming zine, in a practical sense took maybe a couple of hours to put together, this was because I had had various ideas floating around and they suddenly all fused together.  Once I got it straight in my head there was no stopping me. I honestly can't say how long I had been mulling all the themes etc. over. So who can say how long a zine takes?

Bunch of crap thrown together has its place too ;)

Right, it's all about what is behind the art.  A lot of thought needs to go into a piece that flows well.  If not, it's just like a bunch of crap thrown on a page together.

Like art right? People always complain about modern or conceptual art being something their kid could've done but there is more to it than that!

I agree.  Zines do spend a lot of time in our heads before they're materialized.  You can't really put a time limit on it!
