Banned Books Week feels like the right time to mention that 'Disordered Readers Anonymous' zine includes a list of literature banned from rehabs!

Found the *perfect* price list holder for my first market of Spooky Season! 🎃

This 'Thing' even matches my Wednesday jacket! 🖤😍

Ipswich folks, if you're in town on Sunday, head to The Walk 12pm-4pm.

I'll be serving 3 zines for £10.

All the zines I'll be bringing to London Anarchist Book Fair (Sat) & Grrrl Zine Fair (Sun).

Who am I seeing there? What zine(s) are you buying?

Not there? Most are also on Ko-Fi (a couple are zine fair exclusives!) ko-fi.com/exzineeditor...

Outfit for Saturday’s @chartmusictotp.bsky.social gig at London Pod Festival.

I’ll have copies of the ‘TOTP: A Zombie Whodunnit zine’ available, ft. bits from Chart Music’s @simonprice.bsky.social + Al Needham.

On the merch table, or look for my stupid jacket in the pub after.

Top of the Pops: A Zombie Whodunnit is officially my fastest moving zine ever! It's been out 2 weeks and a third of the print run is gone!

But has anyone found the copy with the Cones Hotline sticker on the front cover yet?

Many Y2K popstars made it onto the suspects list for ‘Top of the Pops: A Zombie Whodunnit zine’.

Only one was found guilty of so many crimes that I spent an entire page listing them.

Anyone wanna guess who it is before I reveal the answer?

Can I match a zine to your mood?

It’s Bandcamp Friday, which means there’s a free mystery mini-zine with every full-size read you pick out on my Bandcamp today.

Not sure what full-size zine to choose?

Allow this imaginary mood ring to guide you 💍

Tucking into Pts 1 & 2 of Ep 76 of Chart Music - the pod partly responsible for inspiring my new zine Top of the Pops: A Zombie Whodunnit.

The other inspiration was 'hiding from the horrors of 2025 in the warm embrace of TOTP', which is echoed here in the reasons for selected a very pop 1982 TOTP.
