Taken straight from the Sticky Institute’s newsletter:
A ZINE ABOUT GRIEF (TITLE TBA) NEEDS CONTRIBUTORS
We want to make this zine because in this culture, we only talk about death when it crashed into our lives. Fuck that! Please send us your experiences, ideas, questions, remembrances, etc. Words, pictures, anonymous contributions all welcome. Possible topics include:
- How have you mourned?
- How can we support friends who are grieving?
- Favourite comfort food recipes?
- Worst – or best – cliches about death/loss?
- How is mourning gendered?
- How does grief change over time?
- Whatever else you want!
Send stuff to Sandy, 42 Merton Rd, Rozelle, 2039, or email like_a_pump@yahoo.com.au
ZINE CONTRIBUTOR CALL OUT #2
Hey Everyone, just putting a call out for submissions to my new zine project. If you love music, but think music zines are boring, this is the zine to change your mind! ‘Sex. Donuts & Rock n Roll’ is a per style zine for music fanatics.
It’s a music zine that’s interested in all aspects, styles, genres and eras of music. It does not set out to document any one or current scene, and embraces writing about music in a personal way where the
writer is part of the story and not merely a reporter of it. In zine terms you might call it a “perzine for music fanatics”.
The debut issue will feature an interview with Kiddie Punk Records and a host of other articles, features, reviews and music related goodies. If you love music and love to write, I hope you’ll consider making a contribution to this zine. Contributors will receive a free copy and a warm fuzzy feeling from being part of something cool.
What to Submit?
Reviews / Interviews / Stories / Photography / Commentary / Opinion /Profiles / Ideas / Underrated bands / Life changing records / Stories from back in the day / Guilty pleasures (bands you secretly like but don’t tell anyone about!) / Scene politics / Collector guides / Issues (myspace, venue closures, digital downloads, music industry,
censorship)
If your piece or idea is music related in any way shape or form it’s relevant to this zine.
If you’re interested in being involved, please contact me at dgirlmedia AT gmail DOT com. Thanks!
