Weather Zine

I've recently started zine making and am really enjoying it. I thought it would be fun to make and share some zines about the natural world!

For this swap, make an 8 page zine out of a single sheet of paper -- A4 or 8"x11", depending where you are.

The subject of the zine has to be something to do with weather. It could be about rain, about hail, about sunshine ..... You can use words, pictures, quotations, poems, photos -- whatever you like.

I was inspired to start zine-making by @toupti s recent Beginner Zine swap in the Paper Cutz group.

A zine is a small circulation self-published work of original or appropriated texts and images. Originally they were reproduced by photocopier but increasingly people are using computer printers as well. Circulation is generally 1,000 or fewer, although in practice the majority are produced in editions of less than 100. They can be sold but are more often given away.

So --

2 partners. 1 eight-page zine about weather.

Ratings 4.98 or above please.

You must have 5 type 2 or 3 completed and rated swaps.

And most importantly -- have fun!
