Behind the Zines continues to offer a fascinating assortment of pieces from all across the zine community. 

Within: Danny Noonan (Clock Tower Nine) reports on zine culture in Ireland, Ed Kemp (Pencil of the Week) writes about how zines got him through a time of pet grief, Todd Taylor details what's involved in a Razorcake band interview, Hamish Ironside (We Peaked at Paper: An Oral History of British Zines) on old-school Gestetner printing.

There's AnaMarie King on putting together a mobile collage kit, Karin Panther on how to be a new zinester with a busy adult life, Anastasia on the Anarchist-run Jewish Zine Fest, August Personage interviews Chip Rowe (The Book of Zines) about his still-existing 1997 website (zinebook.com), a tribute to recently passed zinester Fred S. Argoff (Watch the Closing Doors), plus an interview with our own Joshua James Amberson about his young-adult novel How to Forget Almost Everything. 

Our personal highlight: John Dishwasher's piece about novels where zines are a crucial element of the plot. So cool!
