🔸 New Resource You may have heard someone say "research your zines" before, but don't know what that means or where to start. Our new beginner guide to zine research may be what you were looking for. Check it out at: zineresearch.carrd.co

🔸 We've updated the zine taglist! We've re-vamped the format to make it easier to keep things up to date. It will require some piecing together different lists depending on your zine. You can find it here: atozines.carrd.co#taglist Let us know if we missed anything

@wriozine.bsky.social Shame on you, shame on your whole team if the team consented to this. If being critical of the head mod GOING BEHIND A WHOLE ZINE’S WORTH OF CONTRIBUTORS AND MODS’ BACK warrants removal from the zine server with NO PRIOR DISCUSSION, trust between us has been +

⛓️🎩 IMPORTANT: Chargebacks + Refunds 🃏🐺 PLEASE INITIATE CHARGEBACKS. We were informed today that Ash has proceeded with partial shipments and bundles include the print that merch artist Nine no longer consents to being included. (1/10)

slowly, but surely... we are adding to this list If there are any specific projects you think need the extra promo by being on this list let us know. In the meantime we primarily add to the list based on the posts we're tagged in and what we come across organically

📌 Welcome to atozines: a collection of zine resources from a to z. Links to our collection of various resources can be found on our website at: atozines.carrd.co

We updated our "sharing on IG" info graphics. The information is mostly the same, but we're accommodating the new 2:3 grid by accepting 4:5 graphics and the usual 1:1.

🔸 New Keeping a zine tracker is hard... So we started an "ongoing" tag in the archive that will allow us to keep track of in-progress projects without all the additional care a tracker needs. Feel free to check it out: bit.ly/atzOngoing We'll be slowly growing this database

A little confused about the USA & China tariffs? We put together a little infographic to highlight the parts that affect the zine community the most. Things are rumored to change, but this should explain why some projects are changing their plans and how you may be affected.

✨ New Feeds ✨ A fan of too many things? We've created two feeds to make browsing easier. Anime: bit.ly/atzbskyANIME Game: bit.ly/atzbskyGAME Please note that these feeds work by merging from our existing lists. As we make more lists, we'll be sure to add them to the appropriate feeds.

Here are some of our newest lists that you can follow You can find them on our profile under the "lists" tab

Do you remember to scroll through our feeds?

I RT fanzine, fan events, and fanmerch projects for all Hoyoverse games! ✨ Ship, 🔞, ⚰🕊 friendly. ✨ I RT interest checks, apps, preorders, and leftovers ✨ 280+ past and current fanzines in the 🔗 in bio!

A reminder that you can submit your projects to the calendar and archive 🔸 bit.ly/atozSUBMIT 🔸 bit.ly/atozArchiveS...

🍂 Happy Equinox! ❄ The zine is out now! Our 36 contributors have cooked up nearly ‼ 500 pages ‼ of TdBk, perfect for the changing seasons. Download it below. 🔗 tdbkequionox.itch.io/tdbk-equinox #tdbk #todobaku

🔸 Keep forgetting to check the feeds you're following? Try turning on this experimental feature to get feeds to populate on your Following feed! Where to find it: settings > content and media > following feed preferences > show samples of your saved feeds in your Following feed

A reminder that if you want to be featured on our lists, the hashtags must be in the original post, or a QRT of the post. If you put them in the replies, posts will not show up in the feeds.

New List: ✨ Free zines —  bsky.app/profile/atoz... This list will not include: - projects that aren't 100% SFW (no NSFW side zines) - invite-only projects - accounts on the "free zines/event hosts" list: bsky.app/profile/atoz... - projects that do not specify they are free in their bio*

Started some new lists: - Original Zines 🔞 bsky.app/profile/did:... - Persona bsky.app/profile/did:... - Marvel & DC Comics bsky.app/profile/did:... — - — - — - —  Let us know what other list you'd be interested in. We were thinking of some generic ones like "anime" or "gaming" as well 🤔

🔸 New List We created a new list for Riot Games to house any League of Legends, Arcane, or Valorant zines bsky.app/profile/atoz...

🔸What type of zine project is best for you?🔸 This resource was made with generalizations primarily for those new to the space and who need a starting point to make informed decisions. Always read the zine info doc as every project is different.

Checkout our Bluesky resources: Feeds 🔸 General: bit.ly/atzbskyGENERAL 🔸 For Apps and Signups: bit.ly/atzbskyAPPS 🔸 For Preorders/Leftovers: bit.ly/atzbskyPREORDER Starter Kit 🔸 go.bsky.app/7bQcNRe And don't forget to check out our lists!

🔸 Tip Place hashtags in the main post—not in a reply—for better results. Bsky is not like Twitter. Bsky does NOT display the entire thread when searching through tags; it only shows the post with the hashtag. Bsky also tends to omit replies from searches, only focusing on main posts.

We created a simplified overview for those who are not as familiar with zines to explain why we find this service to be unethical—and how unfair it is to the creators whose work is being used and sold. To learn more about general zine practice check out a guide: bit.ly/atozresources

🔸 How to get added to our zine & fandom lists: Just let us know you exist by: 1 - following us 2 - tagging us 3 - use a hashtag to show up in our feeds #atozines or #zineapps 4 - reach out by replying to any of our posts

🔸Want to check out past zine projects? Check out our Zine Archive: bit.ly/atozinesArchive Looking for something new? Find a free zine to download: bit.ly/atozinesFREE Don't see your project? Submit to the Archive: bit.ly/atozinesArchiveSubmit

✨ How @atozines.bsky.social works: 1️⃣ Every zine that tags us gets sorted in one of two lists: The SFW: bsky.app/profile/atozines.bsky.social/lists/3l7me7if6jo27 And the NSFW: bsky.app/profile/atozines.bsky.social/lists/3l7pb7lkkfc23 Please follow these lists to stay up to date with projects

🔸 Zine Baby A resource that was made to introduce people to the online zine community. Touching upon important information one may want to know before committing and/or applying to a zine. Zine baby is helpful to buyers who want to learn more about the process. Check it out: zinebaby.carrd.co

🔸 Our Fandom Lists (SFW) - Boku No Hero: bsky.app/profile/atoz... - Genshin Impact: bsky.app/profile/atoz... - Jujutsu Kaisen: bsky.app/profile/atoz... - One Piece: bsky.app/profile/atoz... - Final Fantasy: bsky.app/profile/atoz... - Bungo Stray Dogs: bsky.app/profile/atoz... More to come—

✨ Don't forget to check out our Feeds. We have one specifically for zine apps, and one for general zine posts. Use the tags to appear on the feeds (we have variations for whatever feels more natural for you): #atozinesfeed #atzfeed #zineapps #zineapp And let us know of other hashtags to include

✨ Zine Apps Feed We created a zine apps feed for contributor and moderator apps. use the hashtag #zineapps to appear on the feed. Right now it's pulling more than just zine apps—as the community rebuilds itself on bsky. In the future, the list will be updated to ONLY show #zineapp posts.

🔸 Update With the increase of users and migration to bsky, the site is chugging and producing errors...etc we are in the process trying to build out lists again (like on twitter) for people to follow. If there are specific lists you're interested in (or even feeds) let us know.

Don't forget to check out our feed: bsky.app/profile/atozines.bsky.social/feed/aaanlibay2faa For NSFW zines we have our NSFW list: bsky.app/profile/atozines.bsky.social/lists/3l7pb7lkkfc23

We've been building a zine archive of completed or discontinued projects, but do to the amount of projects out there, we could use some help. You can check out the archive here: bit.ly/atozinesArchive If you don't see a project you can use the form to add it: bit.ly/atozinesArchiveSubmit

Our feed is currently not working which could be due to the influx of users and accounts. We have begin to start build up our lists again, which you can follow. Please note that Bsky lists work a little differently than twitter lists

Don't have an instagram account? You can use ours for promo. Why? Having an instagram account might not be within your teams bandwidth, but you may still want additional promo on other platforms for easy sharing. Requirement: 3 photos max, 1:1 ratio, caption More info: atozines.carrd.co/#igpromo
