I've shipped out just about 450 copies of my zines in the past 2 months. I love it. The whole process. Turning my Substack stories and essays into an A5 magazine. Commissioning original artwork from real artists for the pieces. Ordering copies from the printer I work with and anticipating the deliveries. Buying shipping label stickers and envelopes. Coming up with special perks like stickers and postcards. Writing thank yous. Reading the names and countries where they're headed. Packing each and every one. And I especially love dropping them off at the post office. It's all genuinely fun. Getting paid for my work is an added bonus too. Thanks to everyone who has bought a physical or digital copy!

I'm spending my Halloween reading and writing about Descartes's spooky ghost in the machine. It's especially scary for my physicalist friends. Also trick-or-treatin' for the first time with my little lady.

Issue 2 of my science fiction and fantasy magazine is here 🙌 parkerzines.etsy.com/listing/4390968786

The first printing always comes with something special, is limited to 50 copies and is signed and numbered. Last one came with 2 stickers, this one comes with a thank you letter on a postcard with the cover art on it.

But if you don't want the special 1st printing, there's a pre-order for the 2nd printing too which is a few bucks cheaper too parkerzines.etsy.com/listing/4390997055
