About The Zine
This zine will focus on celebrating cast of Timothy Zahn's Chiss Ascendancy Novels by emphasizing the themes of finding home and found family among the chiss characters we all know and love. After all sales have been finalized, the proceeds of this zine will be donated to a yet to be determined charity.
For those uncertain of what a zine is:
A zine (shortened from magazine) is a collaborative collection of UNOFFICIAL* various pieces of art and writing in one book/booklet. The history of zines is extensive and all encompassing (like internet fandoms in general). It is safe to say that they celebrate something their fandom loves, whether it be a specific ship or a general ode to canon. Depending on the nature of the zine, it is usually put up for sale and all proceeds are donated to a selected charity.
But, My Lord. Is that … legal?
Yep! The biggest point here is that no one involved is going to be making a cent of profit from the sale of this zine. Sales will go first toward paying for the publication of the zine and merch, and any remainder will be donated to charity. Every mod and contributor is an unpaid volunteer, and all content is being created or provided free of charge by the contributors.
