I’m really excited to announce that my wife Alli is debuting her very first comic zine Pump Station at Chicago’s Zine Fest tomorrow. It’s about her experiences breastfeeding and pumping, and she let me put images to her fantastic words. We’ll be at Plumber’s Union Hall (1340 W Washington Blvd.) at Table C10.
In case you don’t know, a zine is an independent, small-circulated book/magazine (hence the ‘zine) that is self published and often reproduced with a photo-copier. After getting the book finished in about 5 months (she had done the writing well in advance…I just drug my feet on the drawing, inking and markering!), we got it printed this week, stapled and trimmed this week- just in the nick of time.
We’ll be there all day and Cora will be making her very first zine while we’re there!
