Pronounced "zeen," zines are DIY booklets made by collaging text and images together to share your niche interests and personal experiences through low-stakes creative self-expression. The best thing about zines is that anyone can make them – they're easy, cheap, and can explore literally any topic or theme. No rules, no filters, no algorithm – just pure pre-internet vibes, made by you because you love what you love.
