I devoured this book. It was exactly what I've wanted a book about music- playing and experiencing it- to be. Jeff Miller wrote a perfect book about music and subcultures and the people who create them. I immediately started re-reading it. I can't recommend this highly enough.

Come for the heart-warming craft essay about how the zine community made me a novelist, stay for the photo of me as a greasy teen zinester! Thanks so much to Lit Hub which I'm told has some zinemakers in it's ranks :) It's a true honour to be published here! @houseofanansi.bsky.social #zines

“Possibly the greatest lesson I got from the zine is that writing is about community.” How zines taught @theghostpine.bsky.social to be a novelist.

Love this public service announcement on a neighborhood bulletin board (looks like it got wet in the rain, that's why it's a bit blurry) "NO ONE CAN TAKE SELF PUBLISHING AWAY FROM YOU. NO ALGORITHMS OR OLIGARCHS CAN CENSOR YOU. NO GATEKEEPERS CAN TELL YOU WHAT YOU HAVE TO SAY IS NOT IMPORTANT..."🌹🥀

MAKE NO ONE CAN TAKE SELF PUBLISHING AWAY FROM YOU. NO ALGORITHMS OR OLIGARCHS CAN CENSOR YOU. NO GATEKEEPERS CAN TELL YOU WHAT YOU HAVE TO SAY IS NOT IMPORTANT OR VALUABLE. NO GRANT FUNDING CAN BE WITHDRAWN FROM YOUR WORDS. NO INSTITUTION CAN BAR YOU FROM ENTERING. NO KNOWLEDGE IS UNAUTHORIZED. THAT IS WHY YOU MUST ZINES!
