Wasted Ink Publishing
Building the zine community with collaborative print opportunities!
|
|
Getting Started: Contact Charissa Lucille to begin the production process. Tell them a bit about the zine you would like designed and/or printed. From there, they will ask where you are in the design process, what your timelines look like, and other details like paper and ink options and pricing.
Wasted Ink's Offerings:
We are now accepting project inquiries, collaboration opportunities, and anything else!
Ethos behind printing & designing zines:
Wasted Ink's goal is to minimize the barriers people experience when self-publishing zines and small press booklets. We started designing and printing our zines at home in 2016. We began designing other people's zines for them in 2020 and we want to now provide this service to our community.
Since we began offering printing to our community in October 2022, we have printed and assembled over 1,000 zines and books over 24 projects and hundreds more for our own projects. We are capable of fully designing the layout of your zine if you're in need and we are capable of printing your finished design. We are capable of producing zines in small runs of 15 copies to large book projects of 300+ perfect bound or spiral bound booklets. Since we know and love zines, we are able to help zinesters troubleshoot design issues or roadblocks they encounter. We joyfully do this work in collaboration with our communities and other local presses.
Collaborating with other local presses:
