ZINE UPDATE FROM THE PRINTER!!!

I should get the whole order soon soon soon!!

[its-always-ziney-in-philadelphia]

Hello everyone! The zines will be delayed again, i am so sorry. The company i had chosen, vetted, and talked to several times in the past 2 months has decided to ghost me. I’d confirmed all the details and thought we were set but this week, they unexpectedly stopped responding to my calls and messages without explanation.

I have other potential printing companies i can use, but since we’re nearing the weekend, every printing company is closed until Monday, so i can't make any decisions until then. BUT fortunately, I haven’t made any payments to them yet, so at least there’s no financial loss.

Again, I’m really so sorry for yet another delay and completely understand if anyone prefers a refund (in which case please message me and i will solve it as soon as i can). I’m committed to getting everything shipped by the end of next week, like no matter what, and I’ll keep everyone updated on the progress. I hope to have more better updates on Monday.

Thank you so much for your patience and support until now!!! I'm gonna get those zines shipped eventually i promise ahjsgdhjagsd

is there any chance you'd consider uploading the pdfs of the zines to say archive.org? i just get nervous when these types of fan projects only have like 1-2 actual 'copies' – although i know you might not want to seeing as you're planning on making printed copies. just asking

yes, that's a good idea!! and sorry for not seeing your ask sooner, i haven't checked my inbox in ages jhgsdhajsgd

🌈 The Gang Finds Their Pride Zine is now available for purchase! 🌈

Helloooooo everyone!!! I'm super thrilled to announce that The Gang Finds Their Pride, is now officially available for purchase!

So there are two versions available: a simple version and a donation version. If you choose the donation option, the extra funds will go toward supporting our Palestinian fund💕 The selling of these zines is of course a completely non-profit initiative.

Our Shop Center

Donate to our Gaza fund directly

Pricing details:

Each zine is priced at €4.5, which covers the costs of printing and listing the zine online. The original price was €2.71, based on a bulk order deal for 10 booklets, but I rounded it up to account for extra expenses (like opening the shop which was €17 for both shops for some reason but whatever).

In case there is money that becomes unaccounted for, or that is extra, all will also be donated to the Palestenian fund.

Donation details:

The sale for the zines will be open for 4 weeks, but the donations will take place once every two weeks, on the 10th and the 21st October. But you can also donate separately

Shipping details:

The shipping price is €5 or lower, somehow România has super reasonable laws when it comes to shipping stuff.

However, because we're dependent on a bulk offer for lower prices, shipping will be slow. The order will be sent in only after the sale period ends, on the 20th October. We should have all the zines by the 25th, when we can finally ship them, which would take an additional 5 days. If everything goes well, you will get your zine sometime around Halloween.

A HUGE THANK YOU to everyone who worked on this project and if there's any issues with the purchase, please contact me @malewifemanhunter

oh my god this took so long it makes me so fucking sad that i couldn't post this so much sooner... I went through a depressive episode and then got buried under school work and like genuine issues i had about it since i was sure i was gonna get kicked out and stuff, then another depressive episode 😅 and then it took like for fucking EVER for etsy to approve the shops. no joke, it took almost 3 weeks. idk man BUT either way i fucking love this project and even when i didn't have the energy to even think about it, i still couldn't stop thinking about it gahsgdhjas I'm so so so excited i can finally sell them and have my own version of them and i am so proud of all the artists that helped with it oh my GAWD

ZINE PRE-SALE UPDATE:

So right now, we're only waiting for etsy to verify my id and identity. As soon as that's done, the pre-sale will go up!!!!

zine update

hello everyone. i know this is taking forever, im genuinely so fucking sorry. my executive disfunction is kicking my ass so heavily. it's been impacting not only the zine stuff but also my personal life and studies, whatever. BUT!! i am gonna get access to my meds again very very soon, and i hope with all my heart that the zines will be shipped by the end of this month.

another issue honestly was that the first print had empty pages in the middle, (the number of pages has to be divisible by 4, and currently we have 94) BUT!!! the issue should be fixed by the end of the week, since me and an artist are working on some new drawing to complete it.

i also got some irl support and im sure it'll help me. also I now have someone who can handle USA shipping so it won't be like crazy expensive!!

everyone that's shown support is in my heart and i am so grateful for it, it actually makes me so happy. i will keep you posted as soon as we make more progress with it

[its-always-ziney-in-philadelphia]

but yeah, um please only vote yes if you are for sure getting it ❤️ depending on how many people are interested, the prices can be higher or lower, so this is info I need for the pre-order too. the prices can differ from $11 to $20 depending on the quantity, but we don't need a big number of people interested to get the price to be like half cheaper. still, I need an approximation :)))

to the beautiful writers that might see this, ao3 is currently being scrapped by an AI company called RIVD. this isn't your usual AI text scrapping, they are specifically targeting ao3 to feed their own AI / "tech-orientes" fanfiction site

their "takedown form" demands that you give them your full legal name and address. they do not say what they're doing with your personal details. there's no proof that this form works

until ao3 comes out with a proper statement or manages to lock their scrapped, just lock your fics for registered users
