Winter has been long and difficult for me. My brain has just been like, "nope, not doing it" and I haven't been feeling very creative but I do always take photos and keep a diary so I thought now that my brain is waking back up with spring I'd use what I have managed to do to get going again. So here's a new zine made up of photos I've taken and bits out of my diary from between January and March 2018. It's kind of a follow on from the little monthly zines I was doing last year but more.
I've had a life long struggle with double sided printing, trying various papers that claim to be for double sided printing to just using whatever cheap paper we have laying around and always having show through and trying to not be bothered by it, it is what it is (and failing, it's so annoying! Don't say it's for double sided!!!!!) Anyway, I tried a new paper again and I think I've finally found one that works for me! It's HP laser paper that's 120gsm and it does have some show through at first but when the other side gets printed you can't see the show through plus it feels really nice and I'm so happy

I'm using some coloured paper from poundland for the covers and then adding stickers because everything is better with stickers.
I'm really pleased with them and it has got me feeling like I'm capable of doing things again, here's the listing in my etsy shop.
And here's the colour version in gif form. It's already expensive for me to print things (I need to invest in a crummy-er printer for cheaper ink) so colour for this is a no go but I love colour so have to share this version of the zine too ^_^
If you're here from the zine to see the gif, thank you so much ＼(＠＾０＾＠)/
