What is a zine?
\nA zine (pronounced &ldqu o\;zeen&rdquo\;) is a DIY\, low-budget\, self-made\, small publication tha t allows all voices to be heard. In a zine\, anyone can write\, print\, an d distribute their story\, ideas\, or art however they want to. Unlike tra ditional publishing\, zines are the final product of the individual creato r or group and are often &ldquo\;published&rdquo\; with the aid of photoco piers.
