Description:

The latest incarnation of the immortal Zine-Go-Round Swap.

There are still a few unfinished zines floating around out there, so I thtought we'd do a catch-up round. And most likely an entire new cycle as well.

It will work like this (I hope).

Round 1: You will make a standard mini-zine from an 8.5 X 11 inch piece of paper (or a nonstandard zine from a different size paper).You will decide on a theme for your zine and decorate the front and back pages (covers) accordingly. Include your contact info on the back cover so your zine can be returned to you when complete. Then you will send that unfinished zine to your partner. Round 1 complete!

Round 2: You will decorate page 2 of the zine you received in Round 1. Follow the originator's theme. Then you will send it to your Round 2 partner.

Rounds 3 thru infinity: We will continue swapping zines, contributing one page at a time until they are full. If you complete the final page, you must send it back to the originator. You will have to send a different zine to the partner you are assigned in that round.

Use any media you like - collage, pencil, marker, paint - whatever media you like to create with.

We did a bunch of these a number of years ago and they are GREAT fun! It's so cool to see everyone's art and different takes on themes.

Be sure to put your address or contact info on the back page, or the person who adds the final page won't know whom to send it back to.

Clear as mud? Please send any questions you might have to me via PM, not this page.

We'll do about a month more or less between rounds.

Nov 8 - I finished the Moon zine and returned it to @StarMcCoy

Dec 7 - My "Little Book of Texture" zine was returned to me by @KristenCat I emailed everyone who decorated a page, a pdf copy of the finished zine.

hi, I have mine back. I am working on sending it out.

I have "Quotes to live by" by Sherry (Amook Island Creations) If anyone wants it next, let me know

@9O96O Did you send a pdf to me? I just checked and couldn't find it. I looked in my junk folder too. Would love a copy! I probably should have just copied it before sending back, but I didn't!

The zine I started has been returned to me, but I haven't sent the copies yet because I haven't finished the cover. (insert slight-ashamed-face emoji :^)

I have Carrie's @onthesnap22 zine. I've already contributed to hers but will do another page this round; it will need one more page after me.

Boo hoo hoo never seen the Moon Zine. Maybe Star will make me a copy.

I hope Star doesn't mind, but I took photos of the Moon Zine before sending it. If anyone wants a look it's here.
