A Letter from Artist Jane O'Sullivan

I got a letter last week.

Jane O'Sullivan had quite a big, impressive, 'anyone else and it would have been intimidating' exhibition on recently, because Jane is a real life actual artist. Or rather this is what my brain decided while my eyes sparkled in sheer, borderline creepy admiration.

Did you guys know that July is ZINE MONTH??

Girl Germs Skill Share Day of Fun!

So, there is this feminist group called Girl Germs. And through various shady methods, I have managed to hide myself in their ranks undetected, lest I be turfed out for not being nearly hip enough. In any case, we put on a Skill Share day in lovely Seomra Spraoi.

Through much exaggeration and bribery I managed to beg them to let me give a zine making workshop. And since I don't know how to give workshops, I just made the attendees do all the work and make a zine there and then. And here is what we made.

How to Make Sushi...

How to make a Zine... zine?

I'm going to be making an appearance at the DIY skillshare festival this weekend, so I decided that instead of staying in bed and complaining, like my normal sick self, I would make another instructional zine. I originally made a 'How to Make Sushi' zine, a skill everyone should have if they're partial to deliciousness. 

They were quite popular (in fact I have none left), and so I made a much more obvious alternative. I just finished it there, and I hope it's acceptable. Quite frankly I'm so fucking tired I don't care. Just fuck off and make a fucking zine. Thanks.

This is how the thing is laid out.
