Team Spotlight!! Here we have ganqinghaver! Supporter of the zine since before the beginning and for every step since, Mon will be a guest artist as well as helping out with some mod duties. This zine wouldn't be happening without her encouragement. Follow her here: bsky.app/profile/ganq...

Today's Spotlight is for jyutcing! Supporter of this zine since it was just a wee passing thought, Cyn will be helping mod as well as writing the zine. It's a honour to have her on board! Follow her here: bsky.app/profile/jyut... And check out her work on AO3: archiveofourown.org/users/Rinfor...

Over the next few months, we're going to be running Team Spotlights for contributors and mods. To start us off, here's Velvetwastaken, the one responsible for getting this zine rolling! You can find her with the same username here on bsky, on tumblr, and on AO3.

Only 2 weeks left!! Contributor Applications will close in two weeks. If you're planning to apply, don't dilly dally for too long! Artist App: forms.gle/HeJ86tfQdbwE... Writer App: forms.gle/3CYdXFFyhRJy... For more info, please check the Carrd: ganqingzine.carrd.co

And that's a wrap on the Interest Check! Up next, Contributor Applications! Hopeful applicants can check out the carrd for more info on Zine specifications and contributor/application guidelines to start getting their apps ready. ganqingzine.carrd.co

Well, less that 12hrs remain for the interest check (or as soon as I get out of bed tomorrow and shut it down lol) The response has been amazing! Far more than I dared to hope. Thank you all! After the IC, it'll be time to start gearing up for contributor applications! Let's go, ganqing nation!

One week left! Our interest check closes on January 5, 2025! If you still want to fill one out, you still have time! forms.gle/dwRvKy8C9joS... Big thank you to everyone who filled one out so far! The response has been heartening, and we cant wait to move on the the next phase of this project.

This wasn't really phrased as a question, but we'll answer it! Q: How much advanced notice will be given for the shop opening? A: As much as possible! Things are definitely tough, so we will aim to give as much notice as we can so people can plan their finances. Got a question? Send us a DM!

A question from the Interest Check! Q: Will the zine have a specific theme? A: No, the theme for the zine is really just 'Ganqing' and their relationship. Contributors will be free to choose how they'd like to portray the characters in their art/story. Got a question? Shoot us a DM!

It's only day 2 of our Interest Check, and the response has been incredible!! We've already had 44 forms filled out! 🙌🎉🙌 And a special THANK YOU to everyone who's sent well wishes and appreciation for the zine! This is the biggest project I've ever taken on. Your kind words mean the world to me <3

"ppl dont rly care as much about ganqing anymore" speak for YOURSELF!!!!!!!!!!

Today is the day! Our Interest Check is open from now until January 5, 2025! forms.gle/THeL18UmVLQ8...

Less than 24hours 'til the Interest Check!

One week until the launch of the Interest Check! On Dec 8. show your support and share your thoughts!

Thought I’d share some glamour shots of the mock-up zine. I’m pretty happy with the construction and layout; it’s comfortable and easy to read, which a book should be if it possibly can.

The mock up is complete! www.tumblr.com/ganqingzine/... I tried to add the video right to bsky, buuut, it's too big lol. Sorry, y'all but you'll have to visit the tumblr blog to see it in action 😅 Also, I'm hoping to have an actual Interest Check up sometime next month. Things are happening!

Thought I'd share a small update on what I'm working on for the zine! www.tumblr.com/ganqingzine/... Figuring out this gold foil thing has been a struggle, but I'm getting there!

I will love ganqing forever….

a gq zine, the return of gq week, do I smell a #ganqing renaissance??? Someone run another bang so we can have a 2025 trifecta lol

Interest check for Ganqing Week Round 2 is now open! 💙💜 #ganqing #GanqingWeek2 Fill up the form below to get started. Guidelines will be the same as last year. forms.gle/UjVMPytjMHWn...

Where did you all come from?? I wasn't ready to be perceived! LOL Seriously, thank you all for the follows, they encouraged me to make a carrd and give a few more details. Feel free to check it out. ganqingzine.carrd.co
