This project was the ultimate labor of love. It was a lot of work that didn’t make me any money but I had a blast doing it. At the time I was doing it, nobody was interested in a fan magazine of any size so it wasn’t very popular or well known.

The First Run

The first run was a whole bunch of learning. I had worked for my university’s newspaper and new how to use InDesign so I figured that this couldn’t be that hard. It wasn’t hard but it was a lot of work and I learned a lot about getting things printed.

The Second Run

This time around I had a team of unpaid writers and I was putting out 16 pages a month! I don’t feel bad about that because I paid to print the newsletter and paid for the website so I didn’t have any money to pay them. I’m pretty sure I was working as a waiter at the time. I stopped doing these issues because it was easier to maintain the website at that point and that’s where all of our visitors were going.

The Final Run

I had to give it one more go. I love the process of designing these things and it really did seem like a good idea at the time. This last batch was designed to be less text dense and give readers a quick hit of information. I thought they were super cool, but nobody read them.
