ZINE TITLE: This is it (I'm showing up)
AUTHOR: Margot Terc
RELEASE DATE: December 2014
ORIGIN: I'm from the Bronx, but I made the zine in Santiago, Chile.
READ NOW FOR FREE: DESCRIPTION BY THE AUTHOR:

I'm making peace with my voice, the waves, and the process. I want to give myself the space and tools to carry out my projects. And this is it; and the waves and the feels are all part of it.

"This is it" has become a mantra to me, and it has been really powerful in terms of putting time into my creative projects, work goals, and life in general. My favorite thing about this zine is that it reminds me of how important creating is to me, and that it is okay to feel sad and heavy sometimes. It is all part of life and my process, and the important thing is that I get to show up and do my part.

Thank you! This space is everything.

Thank YOU, Margot <3

Editor's Note: A Community Submission OR Call for Submissions post is usually from POC folk submitting their own zine or zine call to be featured by POCZP. If you would like to share your zine with the POC Zine Project community, here's how to do it.

As long as the zine was created/co-created by a person of color, we will always share Community Submissions. Enjoy!

ZineWiki is an open-source encyclopedia devoted to zines and independent media. It covers the history, production, distribution and culture of the small press.

NOTE: Before adding a project to ZineWiki, please browse the Previously Featured Articles for examples of the best ZineWiki has to offer.
Keep in mind, ZineWiki is not a classifieds section, it is an encyclopedia.
New entries should NOT contain simply a "sample page" and contact information.

Featured Article!

Getting a database error when you search for an article? There is a problem on the back end, if an article doesn't exist, you are getting an error instead of the prompt to start a new article. We are working on it! In the meantime, it seems the only way to start a new article is by creating a link to a new article title on an existing page (like your own user discussion page) and then following that link and editing it.

Please consider joining dozens of zinesters this Friday to edit and update Zine Wiki!
