damsels in dis dress
once in a while, we like to play dress up. more specifically, we will be having a photo shoot inspired by our current issue theme during our spring break (a.k.a. next weekend) and in order to fulfill our dream of one making one of the coolest (and one of our first) photo stories there are, we are calling YOU, yes you, to help us out!
we are currently on the hunt for cute and/or vintage shops that would kindly donate any clothes, accessories, or makeup to include in our shoot. sadly, mere high school students struggle in the fund$ department, so we are depending on any kind soul willing to donate anything to us! aside from being sponsored in our shoot (giving you credit and all that jazz) we would be glad to mention you in our posted story AND credit you in the back page of our upcoming issue. we make sure to let all of our readers know where we gain our cool things, especially if donated. so please, any shops who are willing, don't be shy to contact us by email (gohszineclub@gmail.com) or by dming our instagram, @gohszineclub.
any special people who know of any shops, big or small, can let us know or hey, even link them to this post! anything and everything is incredibly appreciated.

hola!
apologies for not being here for weekly updates, the team and I have been consumed with the upcoming site, second issue, and other little goodies that will be revealed soon enough.
The MAJOR event coming up in FOUR DAYS is the deadline for submissions for Issue #2: "I Don't Know Yet". We like to start work on the issue immediately so that we can have it out at the earliest possible date, so don't be left behind. We have been graced with many great pieces that we cannot wait to show, so MOVE ALONG, NOW and email us your work for the issue at gohszineclub@gmail.com
also, regarding Issue #2 is our long-awaited PHOTO STORY! Our very own ALEAH will be our photographer/director of this shoot, which will take place some time in the second week of spring break. We are still narrowing it down to an exact date(s), but this week's meeting will have a sign up sheet for anyone who would like to contribute as a model or creative mind ;) we. are. psyched.
WARNING:
If you are a columnist or a special contributor to issue #2 (you know who you are), your pieces are also due on March 20th! If you need an extra few days, just let me know and we can figure it all out.

the Z-team
cause you know, we're on each other's team . . .
Zine Club is looking to construct a team of boss artists, DIY'ers, writers, columnists, playlist-makers, photographers, and all other creative animals to feed our new, under-development site (more news to come) with content weekly!
With our online and social media presence growing rapidly, we have decided to create our own domain and site that can extend the creativity to Zine Clubbers not in the immediate Great Oak area. Our lovely media editor ALEAH has been on a hiatus, but has been working behind the scenes on the new platform, which should premier in the next 6 weeks or so. If interested in applying for a contributor/team member position, please email us (gohszineclub@gmail.com) or DM us on our insta (@gohszineclub) with a sample of your work!!! We are super dee duper EXCITED and can't wait to work with you amazing children.
members of the team will receive (but not lmtd to):
- first mention of news/events
- invites to team meetings and plannings
- freedom on websites/social media forums to post what they want
- club merch
- copies of every zine
- input on every aspect of event planning
- a large audience listening (reading) patiently as you express your opinion
- credit whenever we pull off something AWESOME!!!
In other news, the deadline for ISSUE #2: "I don't know yet", is MARCH 20th!!!!!!
Time is closing in, and we are hungry for your work! Please: this is not High Class Art Pubication, Vol. 5 - do not stress about the "quality" of your submission. Even if you send us a doodle, we are able to incorporate most works together in the zine. Every little thing is lovely ;)
Only 11 copies of Issue #1 left at the shop! It is amazing (AND HELLA FLATTTERING) that you all have enough interest in us to spend $3 (plus $2 s&h) of your hard-earned moolah on our leetle project ;)
Now that we have some sort of funding, more copies of Issue #2 will be made, so we will not run out as fast.
don't hate me . . .

My glorious babe friend (whom I met in line at the Rookie Yearbook 3 Dance Party!), Justine Dorsey, was just featured in the Huffington Post and released her new single and music video, Cliché (!!!!!). This song is too on point FOR WORDS, and for those who can't relate to the message will even take some inspiration from the seductively trippy theme and Grand Budapest Hotel-looking décor.

send help
happy no-school Monday (aka President's Day)!
besides remembering the presidents in all their . . . glory, we also ask you to remember that you MUST MUST MUST send in a submission and donate a couple bucks by next meeting (this Thursday) in order to have FOOOOOD at the following meeting! We currently have 4 submissions for Issue #2: I Don't Know Yet, and about $13 donated. We are asking for 15 submissions and $40 total in order to reward you!
If everyone pitched in just a little bit, we would certainly meet our goal and would be able to do more crazy things. I, for one, have been contemplating a club cotton candy machine . . .
ALSO, please, I beg you, get the Dirty Girls photo permission slips signed. All they need is the consent of your folks to post pics that might include you on their website in a feature they want to do! You can email us a pic or give it to me at any time around school. You only need to complete this form if you were at the launch party and were participating in any picture taking.
so skidaddle! get creative!
SAFETY FIRST!

america's not top model
CALLING ALL CHILD MODELS (that would be you):
The Dirty Girls (Amber, Harper, Casey, and ally Susie) who somehow got lost and ended up at our Launch (jk) would like to do a post at their website, dirtygirlsproject.com! To do so, they need everyone who came to the Launch (and, therefore, might be in the pictures) to sign a MODEL RELEASE FORM, or else your face will be blacked out and no one will ever know who wore that fierce outfit, third person from the left.
obviously, this is importante stuff. we will be distributing the form at this Thursday's meeting (since I just spent an hour trying to outsmart pdf). We need you to turn them into us wherever and as soon as you can, because time may run out and a black hole may eat your face (on the picture(s), anyway). Not only are these girls dirty, they are also SMART - and don't want to get into any more trouble than they already do ;) ;).
roses are red
violets are blue
please give us this form
so we can see you
