Description:

This is for Zine Beginners - its a folded eight page standard zine on a festival. You have to include the word festival on the front and include as much detail as you can about one festival. It can be patriotic as in Thanksgiving or religious as in Easter, Purim, Divali - as much variety as possible! You can do orginals but I intend to photocopy mine but might colour the front page

Things to try and include ...

History behind the festival including dates

Artwork

Fun things specific to that festival

Your memories of that festival

Photocopies are fine, and the commitment is just send the zine but you can include something little from that festival. Stars are for effort and detail! I will of course angel if I need to, I would like to do a few of these depending on the success of the first one. As its a photocopy you have three partners but if we get a good response I will add more partners! Its international but not a heavy envelope

Newbies are welcome, first time ziners are definitely welcome! No recent no sends and no-one under 4.5

So we get as many kinds of festivals as possible and dont duplicate too much - mine is Purim!

Mine is an Areito we started recently... :) or Halloween, not sure which yet.

As I lived for many years in Mexico, I could do Day of the Dead ... but as yet am undecided.

In a way, it's great that there are "only" four of us participants -- that way we each get to send to (and receive from) everyone else in the swap. :-) Also, have you noticed? We are all from different countries. What a fabulous mix!

Aw... how could I missed this... I'd never make a zine and wishing to try out ~.~

Anyway, happy swapping =)

Hullo! I have been working away on my Zine but I haven't checked the swap page again til now. I'm really excited to receive a zine from everyone else in the swap!

I have a dumb newbie question (this is my first zine) - when you say 8 pages, is that 8 leaves or are you counting each side? (I hope that makes sense.)

thanks!
