The Aspie Zine Challenge

Post Reply New Topic

I have a fun idea, for all you creative sorts. Or even you non-creative sorts too.

How about you saunter off into a nice corner, with paper, scissors, glue, pens, etc and make a little zine?
It could be about anything, perhaps your favourite things/interests. It could be about a whole lot of nonsense. It could just be 4 tiny tiny pages of creative scribbling/doodling. Or a rant about something with accompanying stick figure illustrations.

It could be about what it is like to have aspergers.

Wouldn't it be cool if every single one of us made some little zine about what it is like to be an aspie? And then we could put it all up on a website. It would be our own personal ways of sharing what it is like on our planet. To add our own voice in the quest for better understanding.... What do you think about having a aspie zine website? Would any of you be interested?

Any way, I will saunter off soon, to make my own little zines.

I like that idea.

Well, here are some pics so far.

Ive just folded an A4 piece of paper into quarters then torn it in half, so then I've got a little 8 page booklet.

Okay. So I've done a little four page zine. I'm a bit hot & bothered now, but I might do another 4 pages later.

oh crap!

cripes....i just noticed.... on page four of the zine Joey is NOT saying F@#k.
it is FLICK. but my writing's not clear.


eeek.

I realized that even before reading your correction.

But I liked it better at first glance, since I HATE 'Friends'.

That was my favorite part.

Sounds fun! I think I might do it tonight.

nice!

Question: I put in a drawing of Muhammad in my 'zine. Would anyone be offended if I posted it here? (It's very neutral and he's standing there holding a Koran, wearing a sword tucked into his belt, and saying "Salaam.")

upload it!

If anyone takes offense, say that it's just some guy named Muhammad, not the Muhammad.

I've never understood why it's OK to name a child Muhammad if you can't depict Muhammad; wouldn't giving that name to a child be sort of like taking his name in vain by that logic?
