ZineWriMo Day 6: Zine Supplies Stash

Hello, zine friends!

The bits and bobs zinemakers use to create zines are almost as varied as the zines created. Haha. Today is about showing your stashes of markers, stamps, and/or anything else you have to create zines with it.

In the short below, I briefly show off my set of drawers that holds my washi collection as well as a few other frequently used goodies. If you’d like a closer look in a video at another time, please let me know.

ZineWriMo 2025 Calendar!

My goodness! I’m so sorry for cutting it so close to the line, dear friends. It has been a heck of a month, that’s for sure. But it is here now, and we can get prepared for ZineWriMo 2025!

What’s ZineWriMo then?

If you’re not familiar, ZineWriMo is the zine alternative to (defunct but now reviving?) NaNoWriMo created by Jasper @unclejasperilla. 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!

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

ZineWriMo Day 13: Work In Progress Wednesday

Hello and happy Wednesday, zine friends.

Wednesdays are for your work in progress. And as much as I have piled on my desk, today’s Work In Progress is me. I went on a little adventure for fresh air and sunshine. There’s a place nearby that I always wanted to check out, and I finally did. It was so lovely and peaceful. So worth it.

Refilling the well is important too! What do you work on today?
