The print version is currently being reprinted, so we don't yet have a finished image of the folded booklet.

A pocket-sized folded zine that illustrates how to make and print a zine from start to finish.

Annotated with local Texas resources.

Initially printed to introduce HGMS members to making zines. It serves as an interactive instructional guide that they can stash in their back pockets and take home from the meeting.

Most HGMS members have, at some point, written something for publication or compiled photos for a presentation. This zine was written for people with a basic knowledge of print.
