Yesterday, I was at the Girls Get Busy zine fair, predictably it was very white, but I still had ace times. 🙂
And I bought the most amazing zine ever! It’s called My Electronic Life and the cover is “a lasercut replica of a real motherboard” – definitely appealing to my not-so-inner geek. Squee!
I spent most of my time at the Walrus Zine stall, nattering with Sabba and Sofia. <3
I got:
- My Electronic Life – Sabba Khan
- Death – Sabba
- After Architecture School – Sabba
- Twt #3: Things I Dislike! – Catherine Elms
- Twt #4: Inspiring Quotes for Artists – Catherine
- Here. In My Head. – Catherine Elms – Catherine
I wish I had:
- This Be The Answer: Poems From Prison – Talha Ahsan
- Talk To The Scarf cos the Face Ain’t Listenin – Sofia Niazi
- Bob the Goldfish – Sabba
- Time – Sabba
No prizes for guessing who my favourite zinestar is at the moment… 🙂 I was sad to miss out on a copy of Bob the Goldfish, but I got to read the original and was repeatedly gasping in awe: The illustration is incredible and the words are beautiful; lovely example of the awesomeness of collaboration.
…and it seems my fangirling’s just going to go on, if I let it; so I’ll end there!
I was so inspired by the experience that I’ve been scribbling ideas for zines ever since. 😀
Speaking of which, technology is trying to stop me from getting my zine Unsewing My Lips online, but I shall triumph. Eventually.
Edit: Unsewing My Lips is now online. 🙂
