Hey Coolsters,

We're dead chuffed to have some copies of the new edition of the legendary Stolen Sharpie Revolution now in stock.

Stolen Sharpie Revolution #2
Since 2002 Stolen Sharpie Revolution has been the ultimate guidebook to all things zine related. This little red book is stuffed with information about zines. Things you may know, stuff you don’t know and even stuff you didn’t know you knew for the beginner to the experienced zinester. Stolen Sharpie Revolution consists of how-to guides on a variety of topics from layout to book binding to paper making, resources online and off, where to find zines, information about zine libraries, how and where to get your zine distributed, reviewed and more!

For 2009 Stolen Sharpie Revolution has been completely rewritten and expanded to 144 pages with new a layout and includes the previous information, updated resource listings for stores, distros, zine events and zine libraries. It will also contain all new sections on zines in academics and education, a guide to the US postal system, what to do at a zinefest, how to start a zine fest, lots of internet resources, and more!

This book has everything you need to get started creating your own zine or to figure out what to do with the zine you already made. Stolen Sharpie Revolution 2 can serve both as an introduction into the wide world of zine culture, and the next step to being a part of it.

Happy Times #5
I’m known for being a fan of zines, and have been known to get rather enthusiastic when I find one I particularly love. This zine came to me via the great folk at Sticky Distro in Australia and is a remarkable find. Ilya has such a gentle human touch with his stories I defy anyone not to love this zine. The last story in which Ilya decides to track down the incidental participants of an old family photo is one of the best things I think I’ve ever seen in a zine. Happy Times #5 is good, it’s so good that you’ll want to tell the world!
