wiki page for zines by women

i'm not too up on wiki but i don't *think* it's too complicated... as far as i understand, it's a collaborative thing, written & edited by anyone and everyone who chooses to participate. so you can go in there yourself and add info about your zine.

here's the page:
http://www.ladywiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?Zines
i think all you do is click on "Edit text of this page" at the bottom. once i have time to try it myself, i'll let y'all know how it seems to work. :)

oops!

the boards at pander - one of the more heavily-traveled zine bulletin boards that i've come across - just wiped all their zine announcement posts clean (by accident!). which means, if you post there, you'll have a captive audience, at least for a few days until the forum fills back up. ;)

(i already posted about mamaphiles.)

go to http://messageboard.panderzinedistro.com/cgi/ikonboard.cgi and click on "announce (zines)." you don't need to register to post about your zine.

How long did it take for the

How long did it take for the Mamaphiles announcement to show up, T? I tried to put an announcement about Caryatid Rises on there yesterday and it still isn't on.

it's there now!

G, your post showed up. (i bet they moderate/monitor the posts from unregistered users, which could account for the delay.)

Thanks!

That's probably it. It would make sense to monitor posts from unknown sources. I just registered yesterday as well, so perhaps they have approved me by now. I'll go and see.

it was pretty much instantane

it was pretty much instantaneous, like here. i don't know why that would have happened. ? i would try again.

for folks with a website...

from Zine World:

"We desperately need to update the links on our website. Do you have a zine / ezine / distro / review / small press resource website? Is it listed on our page? If it's not, please send the link (and info about your site) to wordofmouth@undergroundpress.org."

(and folks without a website can submit their actual zine to Zine World for review: PO Box 330156, Murfreesboro, TN 37133-0156. see this page for more info on submitting.)

Hi everyone
new here, but I wanted to share one of my little articles that was just posted today at www.ritro.com in their writing department.
"Children Authors" is about my eldest daughter and her adventures in the publishing world.

Xerography Debt

Most of you know of Xerography Debt and already submit your zines. For those who don't - I review zines for them and am **very** supportive of mamazines (unlike most reviewers) so feel free to send me yours. Davida is happy for you to send the zines directly to me at PO Box 380431
Cambridge MA 02238
