I think more people should make zines. Here are some good reasons to make a zine:

1. Because you can.
2. Seriously, no one will stop you.
3. It can be as silly or serious or simple or complicated as you want.
4. Books are cool.
5. You can do trades with other zinesters, and trades are fun!!
6. Because it helps you practice and figure out how you may want to curate or present or contextualize your work.
7. You can make a short one in a weekend and feel accomplished.
8. Why not?
