Thank you to everyone who has taken part in Support Our ‘Zines Day! I’ve been wonderfuly surprised by how many people have taken the time to get involved. Here are a selection of just a few of the good people who have shown their support:
Electric Velocipede remind us how much positive feedback can help
Diva Diane calls me a mastermind (thanks!)
Kaleidotrope know that every bit of support helps
Charles Tan continues his stalwart support for the campaign
Juliet E Mckenna supports Murky Depths and Albedo One
Dark Wolf adds Nautilus and Beneath Ceaseless Skies to the meme
Scheherezade in Blue Jeans gets behind EV
More suggestions from Charles Tan
Angry Robotess Aliette de Boddard remembers a few favourite stories
Cheryl Morgan supports SOZD and provides helpful words from Amanda Palmer
Over in the Twittersphere we’ve been listing a few of the ‘zines you might like to follow and support. Thanks to @kaolinfire @rsdevin @upwithgravity & @agamisu among others. #sozd for details.
There is no way to know how any of this translates to actual support for our ‘zines, but lets hope that at the least a few new subscriptions have been taken out. And it’s not over yet. Even as SOZD comes to a close here in the UK, many other time zones still have at least a few hours left.

SOZD has certainly blasted our readership. We doubled last months traffic TODAY, and what’s more, we’ve seen an 80% rise in new readers.
If nothing else, it helped spread our word, and was a fantastic success for us. Thanks, Damien.

I supported Starship sofa. A great zine.
