Q: Is the idea that each character created will be highlighted within the overall story?
A: Writers will pitch their character concepts to fit into the overall story, and then write up their chapter looking at how that character took part in the mystery. Every character is focused on!

Digital illustration by tangentburd of an early 2000s-style website banner, with a green colour theme and a long-haired anime character. The text "The Emerald Lane" is written in an elegant script font across the banner, with smaller text "A Virdante fanshrine" below it. There are glitter and sparkle effects scattered across the banner.
Early-2000s web banner design for a fictional character + fansite featured in my original story "Home.pager", written for the "Nostalgia Keeps Me Down" anthology by @vinegarzines.bsky.social.

Not only is "SHADOWPLAY" featured in this bad boy, but it also won a neat short fiction award!
Go ahead and sink your teeth into some truly wonderful pieces that will make you go "holy shit, no, yeah, I remember that."
Brought to you by @vinegarzines.bsky.social , Nostalgia Keeps me Down is a writing zine about the dark side of nostalgia. It's full of writing by lots of wonderful people, and amongst them, you'll find my poem 'Through the Motions' - a poem about riding a bike, and about crashes in various forms.

Cover artwork for the 'Nostalgia Keeps Me Down' zine. It is designed to look like a retro anime figurine box, with a magical girl / space theme. The figure's face is bubbling and melting and the accessories are cracked or otherwise off.
Nostalgia Keeps Me Down is an anthology digging up the body of the past and realising it doesn't look as pretty as it did when we buried it.
Enjoy the free zine with fourteen short stories and poems now - vinegarzines.itch.io/nostalgia-ke...
