FANzine Live: Week of April 6-12
Another week, another three videos! The Phoenix Productions Spotlight took us back to the start of the Phoenix revival… The New Releases entry dipped into the world of crowdfunding with an eclectic anthology.

FANzine Two is LIVE
The leadup to SPACE 2024 continues unabated! Today, I’m pleased to announce that FANzine Two is live on our Gumroad PDF download page. This issue continues the “quick hits” of subjects that I enjoy, but this time it’s all about MUSIC!

STRANGE TIMES 5 is LIVE! (But when is launch day?)
We live in Strange Times, indeed. For Strange Times 5 has been approved by Amazon. And the zine is “live”. But when is the exact launch day? I have no idea. Here’s why. So when does the zine launch? I have no idea. I guess it already has….?

FANZine Live: The Week of March 23-29
I don’t want to flood the site with FANZine Live posts, so I think that weekly recaps make sense. It was opening week at FANZine Live, and it went pretty smoothly…all things considered. I’m still working out a couple technical kinks and sharpening my personal presentation, but it’s looking okay for now. The first videoContinue reading “FANZine Live: The Week of March 23-29”
