Thanks for your interest in my zines! Below are answers to some frequently asked questions.

What is a zine?

A zine is typically a DIY, self-published body of work that may contain writing, illustrations, doodles, collages, photos, and/or comics. My zines primarily contain creative non-fiction, poetry, and semi-fiction. Some include photos as well.

According to Wikipedia: "A zine (/ziːn/ ZEEN; short for magazine or fanzine) is a small-circulation self-published work of original or appropriated texts and images, usually reproduced via photocopier…Written in a variety of formats from desktop-published text to comics, collages and stories, zines cover broad topics including fanfiction, politics, poetry, art & design, ephemera, personal journals, social theory, intersectional feminism, single-topic obsession, or sexual content far outside the mainstream enough to be prohibitive of inclusion in more traditional media."

What is a perzine?

Most of my zines are perzines. According to this definition from Broken Pencil Magazine, a perzine is "Typically lo-fi, text-focused zine or zines by one primary voice/creator. Think diary zines, personal reflections & essays, thought bubbles, life updates, mental health journaling, personal DIY, train of thought, etc. Often staple-bound, text-heavy, serial zines."

What is a chapbook?

The term "chapbook" can mean different things depending on the context. I use it to mean short poetry collection, produced in a similar DIY fashion to a zine.
