People I've Slept With #2
People I've Slept With #24" x 3", 40 pages, $?
A micro-zine by Hannah from Australia all about people who she has spent the night with while traveling the globe. In Hannah's own words, this zine, "profiles some people I spent a night with in hostels, tents, buses, etc. whilst travelling. It has their sleeping portrait, a written description, and a souvenier from my time with them." The written descriptions are printed on velum paper, and the cover is printed on photo paper, so all in all it's a quality product. The stories are a fun read, and the pictures are great as well. It will make you long to be traveling the world yourself.

Still Warm #1
Still Warm #1digest, 32 pages, $?
A new compilation zine based in Australia. This issue has a loose childhood/children theme. Various contributors write about childhood experiences or things related to being a child. My favorite story was about a 5-year old who got drunk on wine and later experienced his first hangover. Another fun one was the comic of two young girls playing with toy ponies and expressing their very naive views on sex. Another interesting contribution that didn't really have much at all to do with childhood was an interview with an Anatomical Pathology Technician (a person who does autopsies). The layout of this zine is beautifully done and includes some great photography and artwork. The editors of this zine are seeking contributions for the second issue and would like to get the word out to people around the globe to send stuff in.

The Ken Chronicles #16
The Ken Chronicles #16 digest, 24 pages, $2
Another great effort by Ken, this being the first issue produced on Ken's new computer with new page layout software - a story which Ken tells in detail within the pages of this zine. Ken also writes about what he's been listening to and what he's been reading. He also gives a short gardening update. The largest piece in this zine is a transcript of a reading that Ken had with a psychic, which was a lot of fun to read. Apparently, the psychic was pretty spot on about various things. I also really like the cover of this zine, which is an oak tree seedling that Ken found while working in his garden. I was happy to learn that he potted the little guy up and will eventually transplant it somewhere else. Ken's a pretty cool cat, so go ahead and get yourself a copy of his zine. I'm sure he'd love to work out a trade with you as well.

Zine World #29
Zine World #29
from Blackguard
[36 pages, magazine size, $4.00US, $5.00 Canada, $7.00 World, edited by Jerianne, PO Box 330156, Murfreesboro TN 37133, USA +++ www.undergroundpress.org +++ jerianne (at) undergroundpress.org ]
Blow the trumpets, the latest issue of Zine World has arrived!
Jerianne has changed a long-standing policy starting from this issue, namely the policy of only reviewing zines that include a real actual physical address. Zine publishers are divided over this, one reason being that it would be the height of irony to have a paperzine full of email and web addresses, but since more and more zine publishers are only including email addresses, the policy needed to be changed to cover the full spectrum of zines being produced.
Next up is a terrific discussion on the term 'zinester' that was started by Craven Rock (Eaves of Ass zine) on the We Make Zines forum. Craven has big problems with this term, feeling that the term is limiting and these days more likely to describe a person who self publishes zines about making out, riding bikes and polyamory. Craven's initial post is reprinted, including some excellent (and provocative) comments like this one ( that I completely agree with):
"It's also the zinester philosophy that's been pushing the idea that making a zine is the highest good, no matter what the quality, and that everyone should be making one no matter what. Teaching make-a-zine-in-an-hour workshops that encourage people to lower the bar. Fuck that! You should be making a zine if you have something to say."
Excerpts from this discussion follow. The responses included are all considered and eloquent.
The bulk of Zine World of course is the dozens and dozens of zine reviews. These are arranged alphabetically with the reviewer's byline at the end (as opposed to Xerography Debt that has a separate section for each reviewer). Reviewers in this issue: Andrew Mall, Anu, Chantel G., clint johns, Clinto, Dann Lennard, e. war, Heath Row, Jaina Bee, Jerianne, Josh Blair, Karlos the jackal, Katie, Kris, MC, P.5!, Ryan Mishap, Stephanie K., Stephanos, and Tom Hendricks. Artists: Androo (cover), David Crockett and Lydia Velarde.
There's a Resources section that lists zine libraries, review zines, news of USPS postage increase proposal (we just had one here in Australia, consarn it), and change of address notifications.
Then there's a really cool article, 'Everything You Wanted to Know About a Zine Fest (But Were Afraid to Ask)' by Nicole Introvert.
ZW29 closes with the regular Classifieds section which is really cool since listings are free!
Zine World rocks. It deserves your support.
