July is International Zine Month (also on Facebook). If you have been procrastinating on joining the Revenge of Print challenge, this would be an excellent month to make your new / first zine!

July is also the month for the 24 Hour Zine Thing challenge — pick a day and devote a full 24 hours to making 1 issue of a zine. If you live in Richmond, you can join your comrades on July 8; the IPRC in Portland is hosting its challenge on July 16.
