Brush aside, the cobwebs of time.
And wander between the pages.
The tales of reality,
Told in fable and rhymes,
Through struggles, and weary ages.
Truth, and perspective will likely vary,
When you enter the walls,

Queer Zest Zine Fest
https://queerzestzinefest.carrd.co
Event Date: November 9-17, 2024
Event Location: Online
Spotlighting the work of diverse queer creators from around the world. Featuring virtual tablers, presentations, workshops, and meetups on zines, queer issues, and DIY culture!
This November, around the world, LGBTQ+ zine makers and fans will gather at
the Queer Zest Zine Fest — a two-day all-virtual zine fest accessible to anyone with an internet connection. This will allow folks around the world to meet and exchange ideas where physical limitations would restrict access to these spaces.
It will be a place where queer zine makers and queer zine fans can gather to celebrate zines, queer community, and share stories.
The Queer Zest Zine Fest organizers are a coalition of like-minded queer zinesters with a host of event planning experience under their belts. The organizer team met online in queer zine scenes and decided to join together to make this event a reality!
The fest will highlight the work of diverse queer creators from around the world.

ZineWriMo 2024!
ZineWriMo is coming! The approach of November means the the approach of Zine Writing Month.
What’s ZineWriMo then?
If you’re not familiar, ZineWriMo is the zine alternative to NaNoWriMo created by Jasper (I no longer have any social links for them) a few years ago. I am another happy participant who decided to dive right in and create a prompts list for the occasion. I try to focus on a list that gives a bit of challenge but isn’t too stressful.
In Jasper’s words:
“ZineWriMo is a new idea that came to me in wanting to combine the original NaNoWriMo and zines!
ZineWriMo is November! We focus on making one, or many, zines in November! Our only goal is to create zines, no word count requirement!“
Dive in, join up, and let’s get ready to zine!

Or email me at seagreenzines@gmail.com if you’d like me to send you the list in PDF or larger .JPG form.
