Im Not Your Little Girl Im A WITCH by Ani Bryce BC '23, made in Witches class, spring 2020

Think

Look over the zine. Read it. Make note of anything that jumps out to you.

  • How do images and text complicate or complement one another?
  • How does the creator use color?
  • Did they create the zine by hand, by computer, by typewriter, or what?
  • What does the cover convey to a potential reader?

Introduce the zine you read to a neighbor or two:

  • What does the zine say about its creator--directly or indirectly?
  • Why do you think they chose a zine as their medium? Do you think they would have been more or less successful if they had chosen a different medium?
  • Are there graphics in the zine? Handwriting? Collages? Do they complement or complicate the text?
  • How does the zine make you feel?
