If you do not see your zine listed here but have already sent it out, or just completely forgot, send me an email at 24hourzines[at]gmail.com and we will work it out!
Things are beginning to wrap up around here for this year’s event. I have spent the day addressing envelopes, so if your zine is listed here your Participant Pin (pictured above) will be sent out on Tuesday. The sign-up sheet is open, so if you like to be an early bird go ahead and sign up for next year’s event!
Thank you to everyone who signed up, sent in their zine, organized or attended an event, and even the ones who attempted but did not finish. No worries! All that matters is that you helped to keep zines alive and going, which is what this event is all about.

The last weekend of July is here, approved and that means that there are only a few days left to make a 24 hour zine! If you haven’t started yet, here are some great posts from the past week that will help start you off:
“Tutorial: how to make a one-sheet zine” – Keeping it simple
“How to make a zine: putting it on paper” – Which medium will you choose?
“How to make a zine: folding” – Binding techniques
“Procreate, duplicate, replicate” – photocopying is not your only option.
Four more brave participants have accomplished their goals and have managed to copy, assemble and send their zines already! Listed below are the latest zines received:
1. Anonymosity – Green Power [a guide to eco-lifestyle]

Each year, tons of 24HZT events are hosted all over the world by brave zine-loving individuals, encouraging others to gather together to create a zine within 24 hours. Some events are small gatherings with friends, while others are used as fundraisers for other great zine events. How do they do it?
I have set up a discussion forum on the Facebook page so that we can start to build a resource for those looking to host a 24 Hour Zine Thing event. If you have ever hosted, or organized a 24 Hour Zine Thing event, share your stories and tips on what made that event happen! If you have ever attended a 24HZT event, what was your favorite part? What made that event successful, or not so successful? Head on over there and start posting!
While you’re on the Facebook page, take a second to answer the “Question” on the Wall!

September 5th, 2007 — Done yet?
Thanks to all who participated in the 24 Hour Zine Thing!
I’m sure there are still bits of paper and glue stuck to tables and carpets around the world. In fact, cialis 40mg there may be people stuck to tables and carpets still. That’s what a flurry of zinemaking does.
So now your zine is done, your fingers have healed, and you need to mail in your zine. We’re only taking zines until September 15. We’ll be scanning the covers and getting them online next. You’ll then receive a 24HZ packet of goodness.
Here’s where you send it!
