Quick debrief of Zina fair: yadda yadda it was good. But I don't want to get started on the genuine Canon ink I wasted in the process of mastering my personal A5 zine-making process. It shouldn't have been so hard, but I accept now my tiny Canon IP100 printer is meant for small family snapshots to print for the fridge every five months. It is not meant for dozens of A4 doubled sided prints, and to get it right every time. They are fickle creatures, these printers, they chew and spit and speckle my prints with black globs whenever they feel like scorning me!
Still, Zina in itself was great because I was yearning to share what I have done. To not be ashamed anymore of my drawing or my writing. I could have written more mainstream (and vanilla) things.
Although I'm not in any financial hardship, I could afford to try not to go on any more Officeworks sprees for half a year, at least.
Since I am really getting into the Mum Zone (ascending into a happier and more content place day by day) I am am not interested in normal fandom cons because that involves playing the fanart 'game'. I am only interested in cheap tables at comic/zine friendly events, which are few and far between.
The only annoying people are the odd people that stand forever slowly reading every zine on your table, but don't buy a single thing. But lets not mention them.
I'm so proud today. As although I kept putting myself down for many years, I knew I would table at cons again when I felt ready to do so again. And today I did. So I succeeded big time today.
Some of the final 'creepy circus' prompt doodles. If you get my nerdy reference for the first one, Congratulations: the only anime you can remember anymore are at least a decade or older but they're the only good ones!
