SF ZINEFEST 2024! Some pictures from the San Francisco Zinefest last week! I had a wonderful time, and it was SUPER busy! thanks everyone who swung by to pick up prints and zines from me, I really appreciate it. It was really heartening to see people enjoy my art and remember me from over the years—I’ve had a very busy year and not as much time to “be an artist” as I’d like, so it was very invigorating to be around other queer artists again in a dedicated and enthusiastic space. When online a lot, you tend to forget how it is to be around art in person, and this was a great reminder of it—also every year, I’m always excited to see the beautiful outfits and fashion of the attendees! Someday I’ll dress up more special, but alas it’s just work and apron for me XD

I also finally got to meet longtime mutual and incredible artist @megamoth in person, and got a copy of their Devilman zine series here I contributed to some years ago! Here’s a pic with a cool itabag as well.

This year, I debuted a few new works:

“Fujo X-Ray Visions”

is a collection of personal comics from the past year I’ve been posting here and on Patreon, mostly about trying to balance life as a cartoonist and as someone pursuing some new career experiences in the healthcare field. Like “Voids and Visions” before it, there’s a bunch of personal stuff and angsting along with regular goofiness.

It’s available now both as a physical zine, as well as a digital download!

“If All The World Were Mine!”

My collection of artwork and comics I’ve done for my medieval rpf side account, @angevinyaoiz over the past couple years. It’s a mix of some serious historical illustrations, goofy cartoons, and nsfw works. It’s probably one of the most “niche” things I’ve ever made or gotten into as of late, but I’m happy for the audience who has appreciated my work over the past several months. It’s available currently as a physical zine purchase on storenvy, and I’m planning on making an expanded digital zine version available later—fill out this form to be notified!

“Best Yaoi Movies of 20th Century Hollywood”

In this collaborative project I did with my friend @titilvating, in the style of classic cut and paste, copied zines, we offer our takes on 19 movies made before the year 2000. Many are acclaimed classics; some are underrated gems.  We made this zine to both introduce folks to the richness possibilities of classic movies; whether longtime cinephiles familiar with queer subtexts,  or young fujos looking for more material to sink their yaoifangs into.  Our sample size caters to our personal tastes rather than “good representation” and reflects a fraction what’s out there, with a focus on western US/European media, but hopefully can serve as a fun introduction and celebration. Old movies are a lotta fun, who would’ve thought?

It’s available now as a free digital download, but contact me if you’re interested in a physical edition as well!”

Other Works:

My print version of “The Sons of God” was very well received! I realized sometimes giving little titles to print pieces make for great conversation starters, and I got to chat a lot about my inspirations for the respective pieces. Grab a physical print here!

Ending Thoughts

Overall, I’m glad I got to meet lots of people this year and also pick up lots of zines! I didn’t have a chance to really browse this time around since it was so busy, but I got to trade a lot with folks and also pick up some cool zines and stickers myself.

For those who’d like to keep up with what I’m doing, follow me here, on Patreon, either as a member or free-follower, since I tend to post my sketches/WIPs there first. For me now, it’s back to the grind of school and also continuing creative projects. I have a lot of stuff I dream of doing, and it’s always a challenge to balance that with what needs to get done. If I learned anything from this event, it’s how valuable it is to connect with people in the real world art space (Something I always learn and forget like every few months.)…also, always bring water and snacks—can never be TOO prepared!

Wishing you all a good autumn,

-Allie

Announcing - "Follow the Schedule!" - A Submas 2026 Calendar Project - Interest Check!

"Follow the Schedule!" is a collaborative calendar project I've been preparing for a bit in secret! I'll be running this similarly to a fandom zine, though on a much smaller scale since I'm essentially the only "moderator" for the project.

The calendar will feature illustrations for each month matching the seasonal theme associated. Depending on responses from the interest, the project will also have stretch goals for stationary or printed merch to go along with the calendar!

If you're interested in the project as a supporter or contributor, please look over the FAQ and fill out the interest check at the link below! For any additional questions about the project, feel free to leave notes in the interest check or send an ask!

The interest check will be up from May 5th to May 24th!

Thanks so much for giving this a read, and another for checking the interest check! Hope to hear your thoughts soon!

Finally, me and @VioletVulpini got permission to post the stuff we did for the Sunset Duo Zine hosted by @punnybee-zines One of the things we did together was a collab piece. They did the sketch and colors, and I did the lineart and rendering.

Baby Bat's first ABCs

So many questions arise with a kindred's embrace: "Am I am monster now?" "How am I supposed to feed?" and most importantly: "What the fuck is everyone talking about?" 

In this Zine we're going through the whole Alphabet with many important terms a baby bat should know like Diablerie, Haven, Shovelhead and many more!

You can download it on OneDrive or Itch.io

Thank you for participating...

Thanks everyone for all the purchases, donations, and downloads (76 downloads!! wow!!) !! I'm happy to have gotten the zine to those who love Sarazanmai.

I sent out all current physical zine orders today, which basically cleared out my current stock that I had ordered–if you haven't purchased a physical copy yet, I'll definitely keep it available on my site for a while, although it may take a little longer to send out since I print and package orders in general all at once in the month.

🥒THE KAPPA KAPPA BUTTHOLE MUSICAL CHANGED MY LIFE ⚽

It's been more than 4 years since a little anime telling a heartfelt, wild story about singing kappas, butts, and the epic highs and lows of middle school soccer changed some of our lives forever!

This zine explores the impact of Sarazanmai (2019) through artwork, reflective writing, and personal photography of 9 contributors.  From an exploration of love and disability, to the joys of shipping and analysis, to the connections forged in the midst of the excitement of waiting for episodes to drop, to fanart celebrating and having fun with our favorite characters–this is just some of the wonderful work that has gone into this zine.

Also feel free to share YOUR love and appreciation for this series as well! I'd love to hear it!
