Today is a great day for mail, especially zines! I got this huuuge pack from Emma over at We Make Zines. I am a very happy girl, and will be busy reading these for some time. I'm about to make a cuppa and sit down and read a few. It's dark out and really windy, so this is a lovely thing to do on a blustery November evening. There are even a few by Josie Long, who I really like. I especially like listening to her 6music radio show on a saturday morning. 


After getting all of these zines in the post, I decided they, and my existing collection, needed a new home, rather than my bedside drawer. I covered an old cardboard box in paper and decorated it a bit, and tahdaaa! A box for all my zines. Geek.

I'm full of cold and headachey, but happy.
I have sent out a bunch of zines to people, and have had a few give me some feedback. Overall, everyone has been very positive about Elderflower Tea, they liked the content, the layouts, and didn't mind that it was a bit rough. I'm really happy with this, and it has made me feel confident that I can produce another issue soon.

I had another issue of Not Lonely come yesterday, with a letter and stickers from the lovely Hannah. It made me smile so much, and it is refreshing to get fun mail again, instead of bank statements etc. I've been having loads of fun writing letters to people to send out with my zine. I forgot how great penpalling is!

I want to write a couple of zine reviews soon, but I'll do this when I don't feel like my eyes will pop out of my head.
