Events
I have been thinking there should be an updated list of zine events and I figured I should just do it myself. I’m really going to try to update this monthly. Feel free to leave comments with links to events that I am missing.
There are three section to this: Current events with dates, events that happen regularly but don’t have dates yet, and the gone but not forgotten section. Gone but not forgotten events are events that still have websites but have not had an event or set a date in a year. I will try to rotate out events as much as possible, feel free to clue me in on any changes.
