Call for Submissions: Queer Zine Archive Project Meta #5

Post date: 26 October 2010
Deadline: 15 December 2010

Issue #5 is going to be "The Music Issue", and we're narrowing our focus a little for this one.

We're looking for articles and narratives about how queer zines and queer music connect. More specifically across genres like queercore/queerpunk, riot grrrl, and homo-hop, though please don't let that be the limit.

Some questions to think about:

  • Did queer zines turn you on to certain bands or musicians?
  • Did queer zines help to promote you or your band?
  • In the age of the internet, MySpace, iTunes, etc. what and how do musicians and zines interact?
  • What about fanzines? Do they still exist? Any stories about fanzines specifically?

Ideally we're looking for between 1000 and 3000 words (roughly 2-5 pages), or grayscale images at 300dpi or higher.

Deadline for this issue is December 15th. We're hoping to get it printed in early January.

All submissions can be sent to qzap{at}qzp.org
