my introduction to zines
- Some Misplaced Joan of Arc
- upon reading this in a local magazine, I immediately identified with the girl that it profiled, thought “oh my god, I'm just like her!” (not as a zinester or honors student or brassy friend, but as a Filipina teen girl with a website & immigrant parents, feeling “as mercurial and confused and unnerved {...} and self-conscious and emotionally tentative as any 15-year-old-girl growing up in America.”)
- Girl Goddess #9 by Francesca Lia Block
