I've been a bit busy. Just a bit.
Hope Zine has been a passion project for about 6 months now. From something I thought I couldn't do to something I am currently doing.
After 6 months of invisible work, HopeZine has a cover illustrated by the unbelievably talented Fritz Metzger. It might seem like nothing but just the act of getting something into the world that other people are going to see has made this project very real.
So,
Naturally.
I'm going to tell you all the reasons you should buy it.
1. All profits from the sale of the Hope Zine are going to Frontline 19, a charity that enables frontline healthcare workers to get free, confidential therapy.
2. It's been made by people who genuinely have never stopped thinking about Doctor Who. It's all we do. Night, day, work, home, bed, bus. We don't shut up. Ever.
3. It's homegrown. Hope Zine has deliberately avoided trying to 'rope in' some of the bigger names in the fandom and there has never been a fight for who gets a space in our pages. None of the writers or artists in our pages were chosen based on their back catalogue but instead, the quality of what they produced. Everybody has had an equal, fair and transparent shot at getting their work in.
4. Have you seen the cover? It's absolute eye candy and a beautiful addition to your shelf. Plus, every time you look at it you can think of Doctor Who- and you want to do that as much as possible, right?
I hope I've convinced you. If I haven't then that's okay, you've got 'til October to think it over!
