My wife published an article this week in the Scene on local folks making and paying attention to zines. I didn't realize you can check out zines from the big collection that Jerianne Thompson has at the main city library in Murfreesboro. Maria borrowed a bunch from there, and some from Angela Messina, so I got a chance to thumb through them. Some of the things that Jerianne counts as zines I'm not sure I'd agree -- Fifth Estate is a long-standing anarchist magazine that's now published in TN. But she's preserving this stuff, and that's very good.
The best stuff Maria had was Kate Csillagi's hand-made series. I think she calls it Romance. Angela had copies. I don't know if you can get them from Kate.
