Hi fellow zine-lovers!

I'm ready to put away all things holiday and get back to creating . . . how about you?

For this zine you'll create a 1-sheet, 8-page zine and the theme is birds. Here's the layout for your zine:

Cover page: vintage bird illustration

Page 2: bird quote(s)

Page 3: about your favorite bird(s)

Page 4: hand-drawn bird illustration

Page 5: bird poem (famous author or write one yourself!)

Page 6: fun bird facts or bird-related colloquialisms

Page 7: bird faux postage (1 or more)

Page 8: artist's choice

You'll create your zine, then copy and send to 3 partners.

Won't all you other bird lovers join me? I hope so!

sorry to nitpick, but in a standard 1-sheet, 8-page zine the cover is one of the 8 pages. Not sure how to include everything you mention, unless the page 1 quote can go on the cover? or 2 pages otherwise combine?

yes, of course you're right! My mistake and it's not nitpicking--I'm glad you brought it to my attention. I will amend the swap to reflect the ACTUAL 8 pages. Thank you!
