is there a specific date or week, when the zine is getting shipped? i dont wanna rush you or anything like that! just wanna plan, when i have to stay home for the package. btw im so excited to read and look through it. <3

No worries! We’re waiting on all of the preorder bonuses to get to us. Because we’re using manufacturers in China and everything shuts down for Lunar New Year, all the bonuses are set to get to us mid-March and hopefully we can start shipping out ASAP once they get here!

[newyearnewmezine]

Hello, do you have an updated ETA for the digital copies? I hope I didn't miss it. Thanks!

Sorry for the delay! It should be up hopefully by next week!

[newyearnewmezine]

Preorders close tonight!

Please get your orders in if you wanted a physical copy - we’re closing orders at midnight 2/28.

Thank you for all your support💖

To celebrate the Year of the Dog event release today, here are previews for this year’s zine! We’re super excited to showcase everyone’s hard work.

Each artist’s zine submission has 1 piece of art depicting a Lunar New Year tradition and a text blurb to accompany it! We hope to share the diversity of various East Asian and Southeast Asian traditions with everyone who might not be familiar with them.

hello!! as soon as i saw this zine pop onto my tl i just got really, really emotional! i've always been so inspired by asian/asian american artists who use their skills not only to draw what they love, but make art to better the community as a whole!!!! i started crying when i read that you guys were including not only chinese/korean traditions, but other asian countries that celebrate it as well. as a young khmer american artist i just wanted to say thank you so so much for all your efforts!!!!

Thank you for sending such a sweet message! We hope we can do you proud with our finished product! It’s something all the artists involved are passionate about. 

[newyearnewmezine]

How much do you estimate digital zines will be?

Digital zines will be $10 and will be delivered in PDF form via Gumroad! ^^
