2. IF YOU CANNOT CONTIUE PLEASE RETURN THE ZINE YOURE HOLDING TO ANY FOUNDER...... OR RETURN TO THE ORIGINAL CREATOR, ADDRESS ON REAR OF ZINE OR TO ANY OTHER PLAYER WHICH IS BETTER THAN NOT RETURNING IT AT ALL

3. ZINES ARE TO NEVER TO BE SENT OUTSIDE OF THE GROUP.!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ONTO THE SWAP:

The latest incarnation of the immortal Zine-Go-Round Swap.

It works like this:

Round 1: You will make a mini-zine from an 8.5 X 11 inch piece of paper (or a nonstandard zine from a different size paper. An 11 X 17 sheet yields an approximately 4" X 6" zine). You will decide on a theme for your zine and decorate the front page (cover) accordingly. Include your contact info on the back cover so your zine can be returned to you when complete. Then you will send that unfinished zine to your partner. Round 1 complete!

If the zine you receive has a theme you must follow the theme.

Round 2: You will decorate a page of the zine you received in Round 1. Follow the originator's theme. When partners are assigned for Round 2, you will send it to your partner.

Rounds 3 thru infinity: We will continue swapping zines, contributing one page at a time until they are full. If you complete the final page, you must send it back to the originator. You will have to make a new zine for your partner in that round. Or you can send an extra one that you have on hand.

If your assigned partner is the originator of the zine, do not send it back to her (or him ;-) to add a page in their own zine. Again, make a new one to send and keep that one for a further round..

Use any media you like - collage, pencil, marker, paint - whatever medium you like to create with. Have fun!

Be sure to put your address or contact info on the back page, or the person who adds the final page won't know whom to send it back to.

Clear as mud? Please send any questions you might have to me via PM, not this page.

We'll do about a month more or less between rounds.

Zines are small and easy to misplace. Please take good care of them. And please be diligent to return them to their originator. We all put a lot of time and effort into making something we love. Please be respectful of that.

And have fun.
