AWKWARDLY PUT SUBSCRIPTIONS!


I've toyed with the idea for a long, long time, but I'm finally ready to make my zine available by subscription. The main reason I've dragged my feet on this one is because of the certainty of raising the per issue price. As you can see below, the price break down is $2/issue instead of the previous $1/issue (or free most of the time since I like giving gifts). Zines are commonly $2 these days, and I know I shouldn't feel ashamed, but I have always wanted to be that person holding out and seriously going poor for her zine habit. Hell, when I first started out I charged 25¢ per issue. I liked that exchange of paper for metal. Them days is long gone, I tell you what. If I aim to keep this up, I gotta pay the copier.


If you'd like a subscription, here's how it will work:

5 issues = $10

back issues = $2 each

I publish a new issue about once every two months; it depends on how much material I collect. Each issue is around 28 pages. 1/4 size. Cardstock cover. Maybe I'll get crazy and occasionally make a Gocco print cover. No guarantees, though.

I'm not set up with PayPal, so I'll have to take check or well-concealed cash.

P.S. I forgot to mention that I'm keen on barter, so if you have zines or anything else you make with your own hands, I'd be interested in trading. Up ya bum, monetary economy!
