Tell Your Own Story: Zine Resources


In 2019, I published Tell Your Own Story, a workbook zine inspired by my workshop of the same name, featuring prompts to help you write your first (or fifth! or hundredth!) perzine. Instead of including a list of resources in print that could become irrelevant over time, I opted instead to post the list here. This page will be updated as often as I feel like with zines resources to help you write, consume and enjoy zines and zine culture.
