Description:

I admittedly have never made a zine before, but it is something I am interested in. So I thought that I would make a swap where we could all have a go at making them together. I would like us all to make any sized zine we prefer, in any kind of style. As for the content I would like it to be an 'introduction' zine. I mean that it would be full of your own personal information, the idea being that it can be sent on other swaps, such an penpal swaps, to help introduce yourself. Of course if you have made a zine before you can still join, but you must expect that other swappers may be trying this out for the first time and so what you receive may not be a masterpiece! Please take this into consideration when rating. If a swapper has sent a zine and a letter please give them a 5.

Make at least five copies of a zine which contains your personal information. This can be your name, age, email, crafts you enjoy, books you read...really, anything you would like potential penpals to know about you.

Make the zine in any way, shape or form that you want.

As this is penpalling related please send a letter to introduce yourself.

I will set this to newbies welcome but I would like to see well filled out profiles. Due to the effort put into zine making I will remove members who I think may flake.

I'm giving a really long time for sign ups, and also you will have quite a long time to get this made and sent out. I think this will give everyone plenty of time to experiment.
