Interest in restarting the fan webzine?

[Olefin]

As Legbreaker pointed out to me (thank you as I hadnt noticed) Grimace hasnt been on the board in a very long time. I know that people had sent him articles for a second issue of the fan webzine but that nothing has come of it in quite a while.

If there is interest I would be up for creating a second issue of the zine but would need the material that was sent to Grimace as well as any new submissions as well.

However want to get an A OK from the board moderators first to take over the effort for a second issue and if they are ok with it then will give email for submissions and see what I can do.

Several of us have it on our sites. My copy is with the PDF section, accessible through the PDF page:

More work can certainly start, but I would give Grimace a bit of time to reply before we take the reigns from him. He could be visiting without signing in.

His email for submissions is Twilightgrimace@gmail.com if someone wants to ping him.

I'm interested in taking a few notes and thoughts and fleshing them out into at least 3 adventures.
-Hidden WWII fuel and repair depot
-Forgotten fuel cashe abandoned in 1998 retreat
-Rescuing wife of team member left in Cztuchow

I will send him an email and see if he replies.

If he does and says he is ok with us doing issue two then I will post that and I can get started.

If he says he is ready to take it back up, then will also report that.

Sorry, I don't have the time to produce any new material at the moment and frankly my enthusiasm for this has taken a nose dive after the last attempt.

Everything that I have that I would deem to be suitable for publication is already available on my own website, the link to which is in my signature (and includes several of the types of random encounters that Stainless Steel Cynic referenced in another thread).

Good luck if you do get it off the ground.

I have material for publishing, let me know how you make out

I'd make one suggestion if you're going to make a fanzine - do it as a group project and not as a one-man show for the reasons I list here

Obviously you want a project lead but subdivision of the tasks amongst a group makes producing a fanzine a lot less tedious and helps prevent turning an aspect of an enjoyable hobby into a workaday grind.


Tip o' the hat to Rainbow Six for prompting me to a bit more thoughtful about fanzines

I'd be interested in writing for this - might want to submit my scenario for Merc 2020.

I'll lend a hand if you want it.

I did hear back and am waiting for him to send me what was sent to him previously - will get back with him today and see what is holding him up - may need more material for sure for a second issue

A lot of people here have good stuff, I hope this works.

I'm interested in it because it allows for a more refined format for think-pieces and fiction, rather than having authors picked apart one post at a time, or second-guessing their work, they can smooth it over and have it in a unified place.
