When should we expect the second issue of Monsterzine?

Hi, about the 15th or earlier, sorry! I’m really caught up w life and stuff

Do you still need a cover for your zine?

Hi! I alr have a submission but I can still consider yours and if I don’t use it for the cover I can still include it in the zine!!

[medeae]

what are the size restrictions/size requirements for art and the cover art for the monster zine? :0

I have no idea I am a noob but if it helps I’m just gna be combining submissions into a single pdf form, does that help in any way??

Anger, deep.

How dared he                      how dared he think of me as he thinks of                      others think of me with his eyes with his lips with his sex and his hands with lust                       how dared he defile the power of my presence                                               the power of my existence with fantasies of                                       possession? Breathless. How dared he think            of me                     in flesh and                                      sighs and                                                     mortality            think of me stripped            think of me bare            think of me                             fragile mouth locked gazes entwined fingers gripped                                                         how                                                   dared he think of me me me                               human? Voiceless. A silence. Soft now.                                                        Beloved.                                                        Beloved.                                                        Beloved. How dared you give my soul a skin, a face, a voice            and let it set your tongue ablaze            and let it scald your belly            and let it burn your nights                                                        and let it taint me.
