Zine Thread!

This is a thread to post about all kinds of Homestuck zines! Zines that you're working on, zines with applications open, or zines that you've worked on or enjoyed in the past!

I'll go first: I'm co-running a zine called They Should Have Spoken, and our mission is to make new content for our favorite crackships or rarepairs! If you are interested, our applications are still open for a few more days. Please check us out on Twitter at @tshszine and drop us a line! We would love to have more people with ships that don't have as much love as some of the more mainstream because they never had a chance to interact in canon. :ecstatic: :ecstatic:

I've written two fics for Terezine and am now pondering over what to write for apocalypseArizine.

My favorite fanzines so far :
- The Distant Past (ancestors zine)
- Terezine
- Pro8lematic Faves Zine
- John Egbert zine

Meanwhile, Gothstuck zine application is open, for anyone who interested to participate!
Info :

Also, Zinobiology (a Homestuck Biology zine) had just closed their applications a few days ago, and now in process for acceptance email for contributors.
More info about the zine :

desu these much various fanzine is the reason why I could stay in the fandom for long time, and I'm so excited to see more from the community. :rorb:

have been interested in starting up a homestuck cosplay zine BUUUUUUT i have no experience running a zine and i have always had a really hard time getting people to participate in things.

anyone know how to Do The Thing? bonus points if you know how to organize a paid zine, cause cosplay is fucking expensive and i dont feel right asking people to do it for free

Hope this will help a bit (specifically for free digital zines). These tips come from someone who managed The Distant Past zine before.

The SBLURB podcast also explained a lot about zines on one of their episodes. You can listen it here :
