The Mything Link – a mini zine swap

Create a mini-zine about any aspect of myths, legends, folklore and/or fairy tales.

Your zine could include a story (or stories) you have written, inspired by Grimm; or your mythology-inspired artwork; or any combination of text and art. Look at an old story from a new perspective, or re-write a traditional tale in comic form. Illustrate scenes or motifs from classic tales. Write a series of character profiles for fairy tale archetypes, or reviews of revisionist fiction. The choice is yours!

Your interpretation of the theme can be straight or twisted (sender's choice!), so bear in mind that the zine you receive may have darker elements than you remember from the Disney versions. There was some dark stuff going on in some of those traditional myths and fairy tales!

Mini-zines should be a minimum of 8 pages folded down from A4/letter-size paper, as per standard mini-zine (click here for templates & folding guide). However, you are welcome to use a different binding, add more/larger pages, as you prefer, so long as the minimum is met.
