Description:
I'm returning to Swap-Bot and zine making after a break of several years. If you check my profile you will see I have a couple of 1's- due to me getting overwhelmed by life at the time. (I have bipolar) I'd like to rectify that, and I'd REALLY like to get my zinester juices flowing again, so I'm proposing a mini-zine swap for people who have never made a zine, have forgotten about making zines or just want to swap internationally. The rules: Zines to be b/w Can be any content Mini-zines made from 1 sheet of paper

Do you have a link as to were we can go for directions?

Hi- there's a good description of how to make a mini-zine here: http://tanglecrafts.wordpress.com/free-stuff/zines/mini-zines/

They are so small it's possible to hand-write/draw them if you wanted.

To my partners - I will be traveling over the year-end holidays, and will be unable to rate your swap if it arrives between 20 December and 3 January... Please kindly keep that in mind :-)

I just wanted to say YOU ARE SO FREAKING AWESOME <3 Publicly admitting to being bi-polar? Hell yeah! Imma anorexic and you wouldn't believe what people used to post on my profile... ;_;

Hey there- it's been a long journey but I see it now as being no less shameful than any other disease or illness. I've learned a lot of coping strategies and am now doing pretty darn well!

To my partners: I recently changed my name so if you saw that please don't be alarmed. :-)

Hi everyone! I just received one of my swaps in the mail today- I'm so pleased this swap is happening. If anyone's having any last minute panics please let me know and I will do what I can to help out. I myself have been ill from Boxing Day until today -26th Dec to 3rd Jan- thanks to some reheated rice my sister fed me, so i'm running a bit behind but getting a mini zine in the mail today totally spurred me on!

Hi! I completed mine, and cannot for the life of me get it to copy correctly - whetever settings I use on the computer and printer, it cuts off the ends of my page. I am quite desperate here, as I see I will probably have to start all over again :-( Any tips? I am in Belgium and use A4 size paper, by the way...

Hi Roadhousette- sorry not to have responded earlier, i've been overwhelmed at work! I found that I could 'shrink to fit' when I printed out, which meant that ends weren't cut off. Have you got it saved as an image or a word doc? If you want to email me I could take a look at it.

I fixed it! Thanks :-)
