I need help for an oc-based zine!
Hello hello hello! Do you have original characters? Do you like art/writing? Well boy, do I have a zine for you!
I'm planning to make a zine called "Toaster oven". It'll focus on ocs and their worlds, and will be formatted like a gossip tabloid!
Here are the columns/parts/whatever that will be included (if enough people participate, of course.)
LANDLINE - An advice column.
JAWBREAKER - A gossip/journalism column.
DEAR DOVE - An interview column!
BREWER'S CHOICE - A cooking column. (Can include spells)
PENCILKILLER - Little tasks / comics / poems.
And fake in-character ads!
LANDLINE - Send me a dm, ask (preferred), or reply to this post with a question your oc would send into an advice column! Example question (yours can be longer, but id recommend keeping this format) :
"Dear Landline. I am a multiversal traveller (M, 45+), and I've been travelling like this ever since I got separated from my (adopted) child (Agender, infinitely old????). Recently, I have been dealing with my boss's bullshit, some random guy that looks like the guy that attempted to capture my child and grandchild, and a horrible family reunion. Which alcoholic beverages would you recommend for my situation? Preferably ones that can be consumed by machines. Many thanks."
