Decades long zine collector here. This issue made me smile! Zines are my favorite thing in the whole world. :)

Yes! We did that for 12 years. It can be exhausting.

Neat idea of expression via zine. Lovely description of the earlier Julia. Am curious what drew all 4 AK ziners to NYC? Would have thought y’all would be more west coast connected.

Thank you! Our application for a table was accepted and then sponsored by the Anchorage art museum. It was super fun, and we're talking about trying to go to other fairs next year (including SF! much closer)

duuuude this is so heartwarming to read & reflect on. love love love that you are a longtime dedicated zinester who has kept with it. It makes me think back on the "24 hour" zine parties I was invited to in my very early 20s, wow. Had not remembered those in years - not that I made anything...yet. Enjoy the hometown feels!!
