Official Announcement

Only one person contacted the zine to participate. So I suppose for now the zine is cancelled.

Welcome to Issue #1's introduction post!

An Unauthorized Town History is an IT fanzine!

!!NOW ACCEPTING CONTRIBUTIONS FOR THE FIRST ISSUE!!

About the zine. | F.A.Q. | How to contribute. Contribution requirements. | Customization & tailoring.

The focus of Issue #1 is spotlighting fans.

The final date for contributions to be submitted is the 23rd of September, 2023. Its projected publish date is the 30th of September, 2023, and it will be completely free and published digitally.

AUTH will be accepting answers to our Fan Interview and including them in the zine. Fanworks will also be accepted, in all mediums. NO APPLICATION REQUIRED. Fanworks can include things like IT-focused crossword puzzles, word searches, paper dolls, recipes, audiofics, along with all of the regular guys. Just check the contribution requirements for more information.

There is no other theme than the seasonal theme of issues being published in September, that being: autumnal activities / Halloween. Creators do NOT need to adhere to the theme! All works are welcome.

AUTH will also include, should there be participants, a Seeking Roleplay Partner (includint tabletop RPGs) / Pen Pal section. You do NOT have to be a contributor in order to include a blurb in this section. See this page for more information.

Additionally, you may request a fan event, or IT fannish merchandise be advertised in the zine. You do NOT have to be a contributor in order to do this. Please DM the editor via this blog or on Twitter.

Interest Check: Fanzine

The first issue of what is hoped to be a serial zine, would consist primarily of fan interviews/spotlights. It would be for the IT fandom as a whole, not just reddie shippers. But, y'know.

Basically you would be asked about your experiences in fandom, and what the highlights have been, how you like to participate in fandom, etc. And I would write up a little article on you.

It would be digital, and free, for accessibility purposes, and because the main focus for the first issue would not be on fan content itself, although will hopefully include some.

There would not be any application process. Everyone is allowed to participate. All types of fanworks would be welcome!

Obviously, at the end of the day if a fanwork is incomplete by your own standards, it just wouldn't be included. But to us 'complete' just means that you are satisfied with how it came out; if it's a sketch it's a sketch! If it's a teaser to a fic, then great!

The only thing I'd potentially be discerning of is how many merchandise highlights there would be. (For example, if you are selling a charm, we could include a photo of the charm, or the digital art that was turned into the charm, and a link to where you're selling it.)

ᶠᵘᵗᵘʳᵉ ⁱˢˢᵘᵉˢ, ⁱᶠ ᵉᵛᵉʳ ᵖᵒˢˢⁱᵇˡᵉ, ʷᵒᵘˡᵈ ᵇᵉ ⁿᵒⁿ⁻ᵖʳᵒᶠⁱᵗ ᵃˢ ʷᵉˡˡ. ᵇᵘᵗ ᵗʰᵃᵗ'ˢ ⁱⁿ ᵗʰᵉ ᶠᵘᵗᵘʳᵉ, ᵃⁿᵈ ʷᵉ'ˡˡ ᶜʳᵒˢˢ ᵗʰᵒˢᵉ ᵇʳⁱᵈᵍᵉˢ ⁱᶠ ᵗʰᵉʸ ᵉᵛᵉʳ ᵃʳʳⁱᵛᵉ. By the way, the zine will be developed on its own blog, if people are interested.

Reblogs are appreciated, of course ^_^ Questions and replies welcome!
