Editorial Reviews

"...nvaluale advce on creatng, prntng and dstrutng 'znes." —Krsten Mueller, Utne Reader

"Alex is a goddess of the zine world...this lesson is so thorough that if Portland High School taught a zine publishing class (and I'm sure this will happen soon) this will be its textbook." —Pocketful of Change

"You know how the first Velvet Underground record didn't sell well, but for every copy sold a new band was formed? I keep my copy on with me at all times, if not for reference, then for inspiration." —Finding Datura
