đźš‚ zine crossword answers ~ and more
Hello there!
Thanks to a few of you lovely people who noted that I forgot to add the crossword answers to the zine-only website. (Click that to get to the answers. They are up there!)
And thanks again to Tara, an awesome member of the community I’ve met through the zine, who made both the crossword puzzle and the whirly pig maze.
While I have you, I’ll let you know that you still have a few weeks to order merch before pre-orders close. I think it’ll close on July 21, but maybe also July 28. Will post on stories and email you closer to that.
Donations
Merch.
Referring a friend to sign up for the zine, and listing you as a referral so you get an extra sticker next zine
These are the three best ways to keep the zine rolling!
Speaking of fundraising, I will send an email in a few weeks breaking down the finances of the zine, once donations settle. Sending a random internet meme-zine purveyor who calls themselves “The Conductor” (???) your hard-earned money is an act of ridiculous trust, and you deserve that transparency in return.
(I’m not shy about absolutely having a long-term goal of being able to pay myself and replacing at least a little of my day job income with this project, so I can dedicate more time to everything. That is no time soon, but we can dream. One zine at a time! Speaking it into existence. Digging a little deeper.)
By the way — I was geeking out because someone posted the zine on the Billy Strings subreddit! I could be more active on Reddit and there’s a whole Billy Strings community on Facebook I haven’t really tapped into, but my plan has been to sort of let that happen naturally and not force the issue. Cool to see :-)

P.S. if your zine still hasn’t arrived, hold tight! I have about 250 more to send when I get back home July 1! I’ve emailed you about this delay separately, if you signed up recently.
