My favorite part of making zines is looking at all photographs that people send me. I enjoy seeing the beautiful locations where people have taken my dad. Some of photographs have brought me to tears and I am very grateful that strangers have taken the time and consideration to take my pops on their journeys.
Some advice I would give someone is to focus on their interests or something they like to do. For example if you love taking photos well make a zines on photography. If you live drawing, make a zine on your drawing. If you love writing, something that I don’t like doing, make a zine on your writing ie short stories, poetry or your thoughts.
