Description:

Whether you are new to zines or a pro, this is a swap to share your unique mini-zine and also send each other your comments. This is a great way to start out if you are new to this or help each other with ideas and tips.

In this swap you will create a mini-zine and send to 5 partners. Can be color or black-and-white, pics or text, whatever you like! Format is also your choice - make it unique to you!! Journal style, mini-articles, photos, recipes, news, opinions, absolutely anything goes!! Newbies are welcome, we all had to start somewhere!! Just no flakers please. I will angel if needed but it shouldn't even be an issue right?? O:)

Here is a nifty template for the mini-zine (not required but an easy start!): http://www.knowledgeup.com/2007/11/05/diy-mini-8-page-pocket-zine/ (or you can use your own format if you like! hand made, printed, copied, whatever!)

five? If I had more time I would send to 5 partners. If it was 2 partners I would join. I love zines.

For the previous zine swaps I've been in, I've created one zine and photocopied it. I've found it's easy to do with the 8-page mini zine template. I haven't had any complaints so far. :)

Yes... you can definitely make one and send the same to all 5 partners, that is what most people do, unless you do handmade zines.... up to you!!

I find it's not hard to send a zine to five partners, since, like you said earlier, you photocopy zines to send to people (so just make one, make 5 photocopies of it, and send them out). It's nice to have 5 partners because then you get more zines back! :)

I'm a newbie but I love to join this one!

Can I send a zine that I've already designed & printed or does it have to be a new zine for this swap?

zoey1440 05/14/2010 #

Doesn't necessarily have to be new, as long as you made it!!
