Fanzines

It strikes me that paper fanzines (I'm talking about lit SF zines here, as opposed to media zines) still have some advantages over blogs.

My favourite of those I've read recently is definitely 'Thought Experiments'. I like zines that make me think and want to reply. If I have a day when I'm not feeling mentally alert and I read an interesting LJ post, I won't bother comme
nting. With a zine, I'll come back to it later on and pay it better attention.

When I've worked out a logical way of expessing my thoughts as to why we study history (which are different thoughts to those of [livejournal.com profile] greengolux, the editor), then I shall attempt an intelligent summary - I'll probably post it here a
s well as sending it to the editor. If you fancy reading the original article, why not ask her for a copy?
