We have unpacked (most of) our tradesies haul! Bonus shout out to and Darwin Deschenes who put extra copies in the tradesies basket! I'm putting them in the zine library so our zines won't be lonely
Tag yourself if you see your zines without a tag Calcifer isn't so good at tagging people on account of his lack of thumbs

We had another successful zine fest at Olympia Zine Fest! Jackalope measures success by a cool pile of tradesies. Calcifer measures it by the number of treats he got. Tamika measures success by mayonnaise but she didn't come with so we're not counting her metrics. Weezilpozzum is thrilled we ran out of coloring pages and hopes you all use them for evil 😈

So we might need a new way to store our zine collection... any ideas?

Labor day is brought to you by strikers and unions fighting for 40 hour work week limits, reasonable pay, lunch breaks, and weekends. If you don't have one of those things you need a union. Support strikes, don't cross picket lines, and NO SCABS

I'm bullying my editor into rush editing the news zine so it can be printed in time to go to Punk Rock Flea Market this weekend!
Casual reminder that we accept article submissions and if you color the coloring page and tag us you get a free minizine or button sent straight to you!

The Haul TM
We did some amazing zine swaps with some amazing zinesters! Kinda sad we didn't get to visit everyone's booths we were so busy!
Our personal zine collection has outgrown our box so Jackalope is looking for a new solution for their bookshelf. Tamika and her manager insist there isn't enough space for another bookshelf just for zines.

We did a thing last weekend! Recap and zine swaps to be posted today(?) And our Patreon will get a quick "What we learned and should have done" post

Jackalope and Calcifer had a great time yesterday! It was great to meet so many cool zinesters!
Someone wrote an article about the event. Our only critique is it'd be better in zine form

Today's the day! Bremerton Zine Fest here we come! We'll be at table 24. Swing by for some zines, buttons, and some pupper love. Calcifer will be very excited to get T-Words from his adoring fan club.

Hey gang, you might have noticed we're a bit behind this month and haven't been posting much. Everyone on staff, despite working from their respective homes, got sick early this month, so we've needed a little extra time to work on things. That said: we're ramping up for Bremerton Zine Fest on August 26th. Because of that, our monthly packages might be a bit late. No one scream, we'll make up for it. Somehow...
Tootles!

WE FORGOT TO PUBLISH THE LISTING FOR BUTTONS
If you saw us at Tacoma Pride and want a button Calcifer was modeling, here they are!

Jackalope's insane and can't stop making buttons. 2.5" buttons, the perfect size for reading without having someone's nose on your jacket. Default wil...

If you're new here (all of you are who am I kidding) you might want to check out our introduction packet. Check out the intro zines to our Cafe (Ceci n'est pas une cafe), our crew, and our 2 serialized fiction stories: Windham's Travels and EVE: a Space Odyssey. There might be a few pages of choose your own adventure in there too, who could say (I could if I wasn't a narc)

3 introduction zines, intro the zine, intro to the group, and intro to our fiction stories.

Well, we've done it, we've joined the land of family-friendly fun. Can't wait to get kicked out for cussing.
