Not zine related but I made this scarf a year ago. Found some more of the same yarn and made the matching hat last night.
Do I safe make mitten to have a full set?

Just in time for San Marcos Zine Fest this weekend, here's my newest zine: New Faith!

1/2 🧵
A zine with imagery of a man's and woman's silhouettes praying in front of an injection syringe, all of these colored like the trans pride flag. The syringe is positioned like a cross. The title of the zine is "NEW FAITH" Text: When I was younger, I was so confused because my feelings made no sense to me I had no words to describe wanting to be a woman that didn’t clash with what I knew Being transsexual meant something very specific, and I’d been told by society that I didn’t qualify So when I began to fully understand that I was trans, I felt like I was too late I was afraid HRT would turn me into something hideous and unlovable Something not quite a woman, but no longer a man And that scared me Text: I didn’t have trans friends my own age to talk to, they were all younger or had started their transitions in their teens I had no frame of reference for what to expect, and I was too scared to look it up But I did it anyway I took the plunge I made a choice that felt like walking a tightrope through the midnight fog I had lived my life too afraid to even get a tattoo Because changing my body permanently was too scary Yet still I took the pill I plunge the needle into my thigh Feel the estrogen course through me Warming me Making me more whole Text: Some say you can’t be born transgender As if it is a sickness contracted by the weak willed But it is transformation, metamorphosis And isn’t metamorphosis itself a form of birth? Of course you can’t be born reborn It’s a journey Aren’t Christians all about rebirth? So wouldn't transition be an innately divine path?

Existing on hellsites is ... well. Hell. But we live in a society!

Algo-rhythmic explores feelings around struggling as a creative in a digital, influencer-fuelled world.

Here's a sneak peek of the zine! (:

A black and white zine sat on pink flowers and greenery. The title is "Algo-Rhythmic" and there's a doodle of a bust up character with a scribble in place of a bead. Surrounding by music notes, heart reactions, and comment notifications I did front cover and page one of the zine. Inside cover reads "Algo-Rhythmic A zine about artist pressure in a digital content world." End text. Inside page also lists the artist's Ko-Fi, Instagram, and BlueSky, which are all Taylor Makes Zines Page two reads "I think I was born a creative. My brain has always been filled with little ideas." There is a doodle of a smolt face with closed eyes and a blush, it has little flowers growing instead of hair

A fun DIY way to flex your whimsy (or unbridled autism): Lessons from a Stim Slug!

I made this zine to celebrate joy through little reminders after I found my little click clack buddy in my makeup suitcase 🥲🤧🩷😅

Available for order on my Ko-Fi (mail or download!)

If cost's a barrier, DM me!
A fidget slug next to a spring green zine that has a halftone image of said slug. The title is "Lessons from a STIM SLUG: a silly positivity zine" A Stim slug next to the open spring green zine. The pages read "reminder! This zine is simply that, some funny little guy art. It is in no way a mental health diagnosis nor treatment for one. Artist is just attempting to spread some positivity (and cool fidget slug love." Next page reads "sometimes the world is hard. Good thing we have Stim slug!" The Stim slug image has a speech bubble. It is saying hi! The Stim slug next to the zine back cover. It reads "thanks for reading! Slug and the zine maker hope you enjoyed this little ditty of a zine. Until next time, stay slimy!" Below is contact info for the zine maker, crediting Taylor Makes Zines on Instagram, BlueSky, and Ko-Fi

I’ve been really overwhelmed lately but still wanted to make a zine so I made an easier one showing the stickers I’ve made recently! Last photo in comments.

Page 1: “I made stickers” in ransom letters and “@zanyzines” written in purple pen in the bottom right corner. A sticker of a waving self portrait shown in two different sizes on a beige homemade paper background. Page 2 and 3: the rest of the letter “e” shows from the word “made” on the previous page and stickers that say “do not bend please…” with hearts, stickers of peaches in a blue box, and stickers of a green frog saying “ribbit” are strewn across the page in various sizes. This is still on a beige homemade paper background. Page 4 and 5: two different stickers are shown one is a “silly goose” sticker with a drawing of a goose looking silly surrounded in green and the other on the right is “angry goose” with a drawing of an upset goose running in front of water (the sticker is red around the edges). The smaller versions of each sticker are spread out with angry goose surrounding silly goose and vice versa. This is still on a beige homemade paper background. Page 5 and 6: couple versions of these stickers are on this page “crafty hoe!” is a cool color scheme sticker (mostly purple) that has drawings of various crafts surounding the cursive words like sewing supplies, a glue stick, pottery, a zine, crochet, a paint brush, and a pencil; the other sticker that shows up twice in various sizes is “100% (cis) BOY TEARS)” the nutrition label says “1,000% sodium, boy tears sourced from white abeled hetero…”. The other stickers are only seen once. On the left is a tortoiseshell cat in a bow tie and the right is a King Charles cavalier puppy. This is still on a beige homemade paper background.

I'm a disabled trans author living with hunger.

Please support my comic on Kickstarter.

Kobra Olympus is a trans Muslim lesbian superhero who has to save the life of a leftist politician from a global conspiracy.

On the left is the cover of Kobra Olympus Issue #3. On the right is a comic page from that comic. From the script: PAGE 8 - PANEL A Kobra is in a new place, without the tupperware. There is a tree on the left, and the side of a building on the right. She is using her phone. SFX: BEEP KOBRA ACTIVATES A SECRET APP ON HER PHONE . . . PAGE 8 - PANEL B Contiguous. Kobra is leaping up into the tree. Her phone is put away, and her left hand is now “Tha-ified”. SFX: HUP NANITES COME OUT OF HER CELL . . . PAGE 8 - PANEL C Contiguous. Kobra is bouncing off the tree toward the building. Her left arm is now fully “Tha-ified”. SFX: HUP TRANSFORMING HER INTO . . . PAGE 8 - PANEL D Kobra/Tha is leaping up into the rooftops. On her left (our right) she is “Tha-ified”; the opposite side is her regular Kobra self. We’re looking up at her as she jumps over our point of view. In the upper right hand corner the moon peeks out from behind the buildings. . . . AGENT THA! PAGE 8 - PANEL E We’re looking at the back of Agent Tha, who is now fully transformed with her cape unfurling. She’s leaping from a short rooftop to a higher rooftop, with a high rise building in the background. SFX: HUP THE NANITE SUIT ENHANCES HER NATURAL ATHLETICISM! PAGE 8 - PANEL F Tha is finally revealed to anyone reading this as their first comic, standing proud while surrounded by tall buildings, the moon in the upper righthand corner, and a troubled stormy sky above her. She is posing like a real hero, her cape flapping in the wind. SHE IS THE ENEMY OF EVIL!
