Description:

For this swap you will have 1 partner and you will make them 1 poetry zine. For this swap, we will not be doing a mini-zine, but a full size (8 1/2 x 5 1/2). You can have as many pages as you want, but you must have at least 2 pieces of paper front and back in your zine - for a total of 8 pages including cover and back. The poetry can be any subject, any style. It would be nice if they are your own, but you can take a poem and add an English translation, or any other number of ideas. If the poetry is not your own you must attribute proper credit - and "unknown" poetry is not okay because it is not properly attributed. Your cover page should have a title, your name and maybe some type of decoration/photo. The back page can be contact info.

You MUST include a note that lists your swap-bot name and the name of the swap if you want your partner to be able to rate you.

This is Wikipedia's definition of a zine:

"A zine (/ˈziːn/ ZEEN; an abbreviation of fanzine, or magazine) is most commonly a small circulation self-published work of original and/or appropriated texts and images usually reproduced via photocopier.

A popular definition includes that circulation must be 1,000 or less, although in practice the significant majority are produced in editions of less than 100, and profit is not the primary intent of publication."

Should every page have a poem or could you give information about the writer too? Can I use dutch poems with a translation? I like to join but I'm not sure if I can fill a zine with just english poems
