Hi! In an earlier answer you said that follower count and experience “won’t be a major part of the decision process”; does that mean follower count and experience WILL be taken into account in general, just not be a huge part of the decision making process?

Hi! Follower count will NOT be taken into account in any manner.

Previous zine and/or event experience may be beneficial as it shows you have a history of being able to meet a deadline. Those without experience won’t be penalised for this (everyone starts somewhere) and a healthy mix of both is ultimately the goal!

But the most important part of applications will be the samples submitted. If we enjoy the quality of your work and feel you will be a good fit for the zine, THAT is what will result in an acceptance offer, NOT follower count or experience.
