I made it into a booklet, how should I get the PDF to you?

This was great! Excellent art. The print files are blank for me though so I couldn’t print out a copy

Done! Where should I send it? Feel free to reach out to me via email: eve@zcmag.xyz

Send me an email and we’ll work something out: eve@zcmag.xyz . I hope your mum has a good birthday!

There have been so many cool zines submitted that I’d love to print out but don’t have print ready files! Reply here if you want me to format your zine into a booklet format for printing to include in your itchio project. No charge :)

A really beautiful and touching zine

I love this zine!!

Yes! Absolutely included. The zine doesn’t have to be made digitally, we’d love to see a lot of physical zines!
