Anonymous asked:

Will you ever organize an enstars centric zine?

yep! we have a charity multifandom zine coming up (psst @marinerescuezine) and an enstars-related art event in october (then secret santa at the end of november), but afterwards i'm hoping to be able to host one of the enstars zine or merch project ideas i've had for years :)

Contributor applications open for the Frutiger Zine!

Frutiger is based on a glossy and maximalist web aesthetic/design theme popular from the mid-2000's to the mid-2010's, retrospectively named frutiger aero, as well as all of its subgenres.

As a multifandom/original zine, contributors are welcome to create for any character, thing, or general subject. We're looking for: page artists, spot artists, comic artists, writers, and merch artists!

Apply here! // Follow @frutiger-zine and check out the pinned post for more information

🌙 Original Poetry: Full・Circle 〈歸・靈〉 🌙

goodbye  /  sorry i’ll coalesce, i’ll leave  /  if those are tears, of relief this world without trace or woe  /  of my weight off your shoulders as i embrace the light  /  as i dust the night behind my eyes  /  above your eyes?

A shortish, mirrored poem on family, death and returning souls, written for Jingzhe: Awakening of Insects // An arthropod Speedrun Zine hosted by @ensquare-events.

“The World Outside Your Window” A Juliana/Penny Fanfic

🌱 General Audiences

🌱 1.2k Words

🌱 Written for the @ensquare-events Jingzhe Zine!

Penny has never been an outdoor kinda person.
She'd much rather spend her free time cooped up in the comfort of her dorm room along with her Veevees. Still, when Juliana says she's got the perfect thing to get her out of her introverted cocoon, the bespectacled girl begrudgingly agrees.
What could possibly go wrong?

Hello every-nyan! ^^

I'm super happy to get to share this short fic I wrote for a fun speedrun zine all about BUGS! It's Jingzhe, which means “awakening of the hibernating insects” and is the third solar term of the Chinese calendar! 🐜

So of course I had to do POKÉMON—

Jingzhe: Awakening of Insects Free Zine Release

This​ multifandom/original zine, featuring 40+ pages of art and writing, is all about bugs! Jīngzhé means "awakening of the hibernating insects," and it's the third solar term in the traditional Chinese calendar. It signifies the coming of spring, as well as the return of the bugs that love hiding in the corners of your ceilings.

​This Jingzhe (March 5th, 2025), we hope to bring some of that spring warmth through an arthropod-themed zine full of the little critters that represent life on Earth.

Check it out here (read it as a two-page spread here) and be sure to support the artists and writers who were a part of this project :)
