Longer than I thought + more

So issue two is taking more time than i originally thought it would (getting everyones submissions together is taking time). It is is coming together nicely though, not too far away.
But in the mean time I have decided to make this little blog of mine more up to date and fresh, so im going to update every couple of days or so and not just have zine stuff but also pictures and drawing of things Im getting up to.
Here is a few recent polaroids of mine:

Soon, trust me!

The zines are A5, black and white, 20 pages, and limited to 40 of each issue. If you want a copy just get in touch with me. They are only $1 each. (a_darragh6@hotmail.com)
