I'll have copies of my new comic Takeaways, which I individually hand covered the covers of, can't handle too much consistency.
I'll be roadtripping down to the Hamilton Zinefest this year with my pal and partner in zine-crimes Millicent Crow. Come say hi! Buy a thing!
I took part in a panel discussion about independent publishing, offering a zine perspective on the whole deal. Had a cold and kept loosing my train of thought but the other wonderful panelists kept it chugging along (Natasha Mead, Leyla Tweedie-Cullenand and Warren Olds, Jereme Aubertin couldn't make it).
The Periodic Journal is a beautiful (and free!!) publication which is put together by Natasha Mead and her pals, more on them here http://www.theperiodic.co.nz/
This was the day before, getting my tags up to date, taken from my instagram https://instagram.com/sophie_oiseau/
My stall set-up. I made a big cardboard Shorty to scare away buyers with her stare eyes. Photo from the Auckland Zinefest instagram https://instagram.com/aucklandzinefest/ there are also lots of photos from the day on the Auckland zinefest facebook page https://www.facebook.com/aklzinefest
aaand my Bad Thoughts zine won a prize!
I've made some new zines for the zinefest as well as reprints of some older ones.
This one is about inappropriate thoughts.
This one is a follow up to Shorty visits the vet Issue #1 which I made last year. It's about my cat's cystitis. The last one was all done in ink but this time I went digital. I don't do fully digital work that often but I found it really ...addictive.
