FAQ
What is a fanzine?
Zines (fanzines) are community-led magazines, either digital, physical, or both, usually organized online by people in a fandom. They are booklike publications that compile things like fanart and fanfiction from different contributors. Often fanmade merch accompanies a physical zine release. Zines are typically only available for a very limited time.
How will mods keep in contact with contributors?
Mods will stay in contact via a specialized World Trigger Zine Discord server. It is the responsibility of contributors to regularly check in with Discord or set up alternate communication with mods. Failure to do so may result in removal from the project.
Will this be a physical or digital zine?
Depending on the results of the interest check, this could be either a digital or physical zine. Tentatively, it is planned for this to be a physical release.
Will there be merch?
This exact type of merch will be determined by the mod team in collaboration with contributors, but it is planned to include physical merch.
How much will the zine cost?
This will be determined by estimated production costs, though we will do our best to find a middle ground for everyone. At this time, the zine will only be free if it is a digital-only release.
Can ships be included?
While ship art will not be featured in the main zine, it will be the focus of the companion zine The World Tree: Twined.
Are both zines SFW?
Yes, both The World Tree and the ship-focused The World Tree: Twined will be SFW zines, and no content should be above a PG-13 rating.
Will there be guest contributors?
At this time, we do plan to invite a small amount of guest contributors to participate.
Can I apply for multiple roles?
Yes! However, please be aware that you may only be accepted for one role depending on the number of applicants.
Will contributors receive a zine?
All contributors will receive a free digital zine, as well as a physical zine assuming all necessary costs are met. Additional merch will be available at production cost, but we would ideally like to provide a full bundle to contributors.
Can minors apply?
Everyone is welcome to apply, but your age may affect your ability to receive compensation. Mods must be 18 or older.
