2024 Fiction Podcast Zine Festival
When: The entire month of September, 2024
Goal: During the month of September, make one (or more) zine of any quality, that is in some way related to fiction podcasts. You can share it using the tags #fiction podcast zine event and #fiction podcast zine festival
On Zines: A zine is a paper booklet that can function as art or an informational pamphlet. These are traditionally very cheaply made and hand-folded.
Zine vs Art Book: Sometimes, fandom or personal projects function under the title "zine" to produce glossy, professionally printed projects. These are more often elaborate, gorgeous group art efforts, and more art books than true zines. You could make one of these if you really wanted to, but I'd encourage you not to, and instead spend just a spare hour (quick), afternoon, or weekend (long) on it.
What should it be about? Whatever you want, so long as it is related to fiction podcasts! Click here for a list of suggestions, or ignore those entirely.
What medium should I use? Literally whatever you like. Hand-drawn/written zines that can be photocopied are traditional, but digital art or documents are fine too. You could experiment physically with all kinds of mediums, too.
Do I have to make them printable to contribute? You do not! While I'd encourage you to if you're able, you can also just make one for yourself.
I want to make something, but it won't be very good. Do it anyway.
I don't own a scanner/printer/copier but would like to make use of one. Any suggestions? Associates who work in offices and schools might be willing to scan or print them for you. You can also check your local library, post office, corner store, and university (in that order, probably). The first three will often charge a small fee for printing, rarely more than 20c, the last will definitely charge a fee higher than that.
Hey, I've got something to add! Let me know! If you have advice to give (to me or more generally speaking), or useful resources, I'd appreciate you sending it my way.

Here's my interpretation of the scene where the gang discusses the "super mysterious" and scary Duke of Scythes that terrorized Deuce's hometown. I'm sure the canon story won't spoil Deuce's secret past for a while yet, but I think it would be kind of funny if the others totally knew that it was him, and Epel asking Deuce about the Duke was a dig to see if he'd tell them. Otherwise, I just wanted a chance to draw the outfits! All of the frills on Epel's outfit were brutal, and I only made it through this piece by hiding most of Deuce's jacket behind the speech bubble. Ortho is in the background! I'll see if I can get a better drawing of him later on, but in the meantime I hope you all enjoy this addition to the white rabbit festival fan art!

learning there was another assassination attempt on trump while the squid sisters sing in the background is certainly something I will remember
