CALL FOR CONTRIBUTORS: “It’s Alive!” Zine Explores the Mad Scientist–Monster Dynamic

University student and zine creator Alexander Veigh is calling all lovers of science fiction, horror, and DIY publishing to contribute to an exciting final project: a print zine titled “It’s Alive!”, focused on the ever-compelling relationship between the “mad scientist” and their “monster.”

This zine is a handmade labor of love that will be designed, collated, and printed personally by Veigh, with contributors receiving a free printed copy, plus stickers and a badge set as thanks for their creative offerings.

What’s wanted?
Anything printable that relates to the theme — art, poetry, essays, reviews, collages, or comics. Submissions from LGBTQ+ and POC creators are prioritized, and all contributors must be 18+ due to the mature subject matter.

Deadline: June 7
Contact: alexanderveigh@outlook.com

So if you’ve got something bubbling in your creative lab—dark, dreamy, strange, or subversive—this is your chance to inject it with life and join the experiment.

Discover Zines is a blog by Briyan Frederick Baker (GAJOOB, Tapegerm Collective) about zines.
