Zinester question of the week: How/when/where did you become involved with zines?

"I really wish I knew how I originally got involved with this chaos. All I know is I used to make little booklets when I was as young as three (my dad would write my words, and I'd decorate with stickers and scribbles) and I started making 'newspapers' when I was eight or nine. I moved on to 'magazines' when I was twelve. When I was fifteen, I went to this writing camp and they had us make a zine together. I guess that's when I was really introduced to zines, but I've been making them for years and years longer than that." - Jillian / Nova Scotia, Canada

"I'm not sure I'd even read a zine until I moved here and discovered the amazing zine library Jerianne of Zine World maintains in the public library. I picked up a few at random--Brainscan #20 stood out--and I knew I had to start making them." - Hannah / Murfreesboro, Tennessee

"As a child I was always making mini, hand illustrated newspapers, interviewing friends and family etc. I remember being told that other people, adults even, did the same thing and copied them and gave them to lots more people. As I got older I started seeing vague types of zines/fliers etc at gigs and shops. Then some similar stuff online. Eventually I came across manifesta and their zine distro - I investigated this as the idea of independent media really excited me. It was what I had been waiting for my whole life and it exploded from there..." - Kira Swales / Northern UK
