I am very happy to announce that I will be starting the ‘Nyx Reads’ series, so people can enjoy zines in an audio format as well as in other formats.
Quick Update
Hello, friends! Forgive my recent absence. My autoimmune disorder flared up something fierce. But I’m still kicking and determined as ever. I’ll be catching up slowly but surely.
ZineWriMo 2022
Hello Monday, hello November, and hello ZineWriMo! Welcome everyone to this year’s edition of ZineWriMo.
I am so excited – as usual – but especially excited because I know some people are discovering ZineWriMo for the first time! Hello to new ZineWriMo-ers too!
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!
Here’s the list once more if you’d like it. Feel free to email me at seagreenzines@gmail.com if you’d like me to send you it in PDF or larger .JPG form.
Call for Guest Posts
Greetings, zine friends!
There’s no happy mail video for you today. However, this is a small announcement.
Sea Green Zines will be taking a break in April (not for the full month, but for a few weeks), and I am looking for guest posts to feature here on the blog.
Whether you’d like to tell your zine story, share how you get your creative mojo going, review a zine, or something else zine-related, I’d love to post it here! Multiple submissions are more than welcome, so host a day, a few days, a week – whatever you feel inspired to do.
The deadline for all posts is 31st of March.
Feel free to email me at seagreenzines@gmail.com if you have any questions.
Physical Zines Back on Etsy!
The holiday break is officially over, and I am happy to announce that you can now get physical as well as digital zines on the Sea Green Zines Etsy shop.
But, as we all know, Etsy shipping isn’t weight-based and is thus a nightmare. So if you’d like the best price for shipping multiple zines, please feel free to get in touch!
ZineWriMo is Coming!
ZineWriMo is coming!
November marks the start of ZineWriMo, the zine sibling to National Novel Writing Month. Grab your ZineWriMo list and get ready for some fun zine goodness with friends come next month.

International Zine Month 2021 is Coming!
During conversations with friends I found myself saying “Wouldn’t it be rad if there was an International Zine Month?” Which led to the question as to who could make it official.
We are approaching that time of the year again! A month of extra special zine goodness, zine activities, and even more ways to connect with other zine makers.
Let’s get ready to zine on!
You can grab the activity list here at Stolen Sharpie Revolution or directly using this Dropbox link.
A Small Announcement
Hello everyone!
This isn’t a huge announcement by any means, but I wanted to let you know that I will be trying to get into the habit of adding a page count to my zine reviews. Why the announcement? To let you know that I will not be including covers in the page count.
I know, a small thing, but… I thought I’d let you know. Hehe.
Mini Zine March 2021
It’s Mini Zine March!
2021 marks the sixth year of declaring the entire month of March as the month for celebrating all the amazing and wonderful zines that fall under half size. From the one-page wonders to the chunky monkey quarter sized, mini-zines are amazing, fun, easy to stick in your pocket, and more.
There isn’t a prompts list as such, but if you’re celebrating in any way, please let me know! Share the links for what you’re up to.
Happy Mini-Zine March!
