🔸 New Resource

You may have heard someone say "research your zines" before, but don't know what that means or where to start. Our new beginner guide to zine research may be what you were looking for.

🔸 We've updated the zine taglist!

We've re-vamped the format to make it easier to keep things up to date. It will require some piecing together different lists depending on your zine.

You can find it here: atozines.carrd.co#taglist

📌 Welcome to atozines: a collection of zine resources from a to z.

Links to our collection of various resources can be found on our website at: atozines.carrd.co

We updated our "sharing on IG" info graphics.

The information is mostly the same, but we're accommodating the new 2:3 grid by accepting 4:5 graphics and the usual 1:1.

🔸 New

Keeping a zine tracker is hard... So we started an "ongoing" tag in the archive that will allow us to keep track of in-progress projects without all the additional care a tracker needs.

Feel free to check it out: bit.ly/atzOngoing
We'll be slowly growing this database

A little confused about the USA & China tariffs?

We put together a little infographic to highlight the parts that affect the zine community the most. Things are rumored to change, but this should explain why some projects are changing their plans and how you may be affected.

🔸 New List

We created a new list for Riot Games to house any League of Legends, Arcane, or Valorant zines

🔸 Physical projects are best for those willing to face challenges, long-term commitments, and are flexible. Many variables can impact the project and final outcome. For creators that have never done print work, there may be a learning curve but the moderators are there to back you up.
January 8, 2025 at 5:34 AM
🔸 For-profit/Charity Digital-only zines are good for people looking to challenge themselves without straying too far from their safety zone. Because there are customers, creators will have to consider the marketplace and may need to be more flexible with their work.
January 8, 2025 at 5:34 AM
🔸Free zines are good for people who need a little motivation (like a deadline or a person) to complete their creative projects. They are also a great way to find creative prompts for yourself and get into working collaboratively or in a community.

🔸What type of zine project is best for you?🔸

This resource was made with generalizations primarily for those new to the space and who need a starting point to make informed decisions. Always read the zine info doc as every project is different.

🔸 Tip

Place hashtags in the main post—not in a reply—for better results. Bsky is not like Twitter.

Bsky does NOT display the entire thread when searching through tags; it only shows the post with the hashtag.

Bsky also tends to omit replies from searches, only focusing on main posts.

We've been working on revamping our tag list

We created a simplified overview for those who are not as familiar with zines to explain why we find this service to be unethical—and how unfair it is to the creators whose work is being used and sold.

2️⃣ Some zines get put on a secondary list (if SFW)

We are still adding to our list of fandoms and secondary categories as more fandoms and projects make their way to bsky.

Find our lists on our profile (there's no direct link) & feel free to let us know if we forgot to add you to a list!
