Welcome to the Mythical Type newsletter, where I share projects I’m working on, things I’ve been watching, and sources of inspiration.
Hi there! A quick update for this month.
Free printable zine: What’s a zine?
"What's a zine?" is an 8-page mini zine that you can download and print on your own. It includes a brief introduction to zines: what zines are, some historical highlights, and common formats. The PDF is sized to print on one sheet of 8.5 x 11-inch paper (standard U.S. letter size).
It’s available in my Ko-fi shop for free (or pay what you want).
Resource collection
I started a Resources page on my blog. I’m linking to guides, tutorials, and tools. The first section is resources I’ve created (these are all zine-related). The other sections are for indie web, making art, work life, and zines (of course). I’ll be adding to this list over time.
If you created resources that fit into one of these categories or you know of ones to share, please send me links!
Coming soon
August has been a pretty busy month for me. I’m excited for September to slow down a bit and finish zines I’ve been working on.
Urban Legends - Submissions close tomorrow (August 18). I plan to finish layout and have copies available in early October, so people can have the zine in time for Halloween.
Spaced Out - A quarter-page zine I’m making with washi tape collage elements and small bits of writing.
Making art on the left side of your brain - An 8-page mini zine about how you can approach art if you tend to be analytical and logical in how you work. It’s not official advice but rather tips I find helpful. 🙂
Thank you for reading!
