Olympia Zinefest

I’m never the best at documenting zinefests but the olympia zinefest was amazing! Thanks to all who came by and chatted! Thank you to the amazing Olympia Timberland librarians who made it all happen!

I had a wild experience with a new oly friend who asked about one of my zines and they said they used to have it in their distro years ago and I had no idea it ever made it off my college campus back then! THANK YOU ZINE WORLD! connecting punks everywhere <3

ZINE FEST TABLER SPOTLIGHT: JES / GROWING DISTRO!

Zines:  growth, brain_flower,a love letter to you after you’ve experienced rape, roseanne+many more Tumblr: http://growingdistro.tumblr.com/

What is your favorite zine of the moment?

My favorite zine at the moment is called pennyroyal by someone called Zoe b. found at bluestockings bookshop in nyc. It’s an awesome zine about the writers experience as an abortion doula and some pieces about the history of abortion.

What do you like about Olympia, or if you’ve never been, what are you most looking forward to experiencing outside the fest?

I haven’t been to Olympia yet but I’m honestly excited about the local 2am food. I’m a sucker for diners and anything of the like, bring it on. I also hope that it looks a bit like the show twin peaks nearby(I’m an east coast gal).

What makes your zines recognizably yours?

What makes my Zines mine would probably be the theme of plants or pastel colors.

What motivates you to finish a zine?

What motivates me to finish a zine is definitely the deadline of a fest. I’m even trying to crank one out right now last minute here on the road.

What is your weather prediction for this year’s fest?

It will almost certainly snow the day of the fest. Or maybe rain.

What workshop are you the most stoked about? 

The workshop I’m most excited for is the don’t overthink it one. I often need to remind myself of the awesomeness of diy when I’m stuck and just fucking do it.

This post has been a long time coming!

The Zinefest Berlin was a really great success! It was a stressful few days heading up to the fest with finishing last minute organizing details, making new copies of zines, and finishing the new “Brain_Flower” zine but everythings went rather smoothly and everyone seemed to leave with a few new zines in hand! It was really lovely to meet so many new folks, to hear about your zines, and to share yummy vegan cakes by Minor Treat.

Thanks for coming out! Thanks for the support! And thanks to all of the zinesters who shared laughs/tables/zines/ and a good time with us!

xx until the next fest.....

(There are a few photos I’ve included by Nina from Echo Zines THANKS!)
