Shamelessly pretending I didn't forget the space between the tags 👀

(2/2) Our shipping mod works in logistics, and for her comfort, safety, and job security, that is not a risk we are willing to take. Thank you for understanding

(1/2) Q: A physical NSFW book please

A: As much as we’d like that, certain countries have limitations for importing “pornographic material” and severe fines for not complying.

(2/2) A: While we cannot guarantee that for the interior of the physical copy, we will keep that in mind for some of the merchandise, thank you for pointing that out!

(1/2) Q: I have to be subtle about anything printed or physical in my home, so I love little nods to the show or quotes that I can still display on my laptop or pins on my bag.

Q: tote bag? 👀

A: we wisssssssh! It would unfortunately be not flat enough to ship, which would drive up the prices a little too much than what we’re comfortable dealing with right now.

(2/2) We decided to select these two for cohesion, as well as trying to be intentional about possible spoilers for those who may have not read The Long Game.

(1/2) Q: Would characters from the other books be considered too (particularly from Role Model)?

A: Unfortunately not for this project. We love the entire Game Changers Series, however we want to celebrate the specific stories of Game Changer and Heated Rivalry.

(3/3) As we have a limit of 1 fic per writer, it will automatically go to either the SFW or NSFW edition. During preorders, we will offer different bundles for affordability.

(2/3) This was an intentional decision to comply with shipping laws. In your application you will list if you have a preference for the SFW, NSFW, or if you would like to complete an artwork for both.

(1/3) Q: Are the NSFW and SFW editions separate zines? If that’s the case, do we choose if we want to do the SFW one or the NSFW one?

A: Yes, they are separate. The SFW zine will have a physical and digital option, while the NSFW zine will be digital only.

(3/3) Let us know if you're a package deal (you want either both in, or both out). After the application period, we will also provide the opportunity to connect individuals together to brainstorm possible collabs. However, we cannot guarantee collabs.

(2/3) Collaborations may look like intro page art for fics or decorative elements (page breaks, borders, footnotes, etc). If you would like to apply as a collab duo, please note your preferred team partner in your application.

(1/3) Q: Will there possibly be a sign-up form as teams ? Like duo artists teams who collab together, or writers teams, or an author and artist planning on collabing for the zine?

A: Yes! We love the idea of teams!

(2/2) Show typical angst is also allowed (we love to cry, just a little bit, as a treat).

(1/2) Q: Is there any overall thematic for the zine?

A: We are here to celebrate the canon characters of Heated Rivalry and Game Changer. Our thematic focus is on connection and happiness, as well as these characters coming together.

Q: Are AU’s allowed for the content created in this project? If yes, what kind?

A: We want to collectively celebrate canon! We will accept pitches that are based in canon and are adjacent or divergent with a focus on the relationships between canon characters.

Apps will open in 2 WEEKS! Our interest check has received over 50 responses. Wow!

We’re running a poll. While we wanna keep the zine TLG-spoiler free, we could not leave out our fav answer Anya!

I forgot to add this one too, oops 😂

Image from discord user polyhymnia that says: Help i cant stop thinking of shane and cas going out for a coffee and just staring at each other for 5 mins. "So,, do you like hockey?" "No" "Okay,, uh,, hows your food?" "I dont have human limitations such as food consumption for survival" "Okay,, I, uh,, im also on a diet" Shane cannot hold eye contact

Meanwhile our zine mods are thinking about this 😆

Not dumb questions at all! Fanzines usually include fanart and fanfic! Sometimes other creative work too. Applicants can submit works for consideration to be included in the self-published zine. Here's the link to our info carrd, it shares a little more about our project! believezine.carrd.co

A zine, short for the combo of fan and magazine, is a self-published work. There are all sorts of zines and people can be as creative as they want with them.
