If you want your zine to be carried by distros.... USE them.

[NicoleIntrovert]

Just a little frustration from the zine distro front.   I get a TON of submissions.  90% of which I cannot take.  Some of those I would give a whirl, but it is impossible to do without knowing if you'll sell anything.  

For as many people that are sending zines out to distros for consideration... I ask that you think about also utilizing zine distros for purchases.  Or help out by sending people to the distros where your zines are carried. 

Otherwise, they are going to be a thing of the past.  Or you'll have the one Wal-Mart of zines left and that is it.
