Alternative Press Fair II

As I was saying, we visited the Alternative Press Festival in London and there were lots of zines, cider and mysterious train disapperences.

We were helping with our stall for our illustration course, you can find out about what we make here: http://www.pittvillepress.co.uk/

I got a zine for free which said "Josie Long implores you to- Be Honourable! -on tour." which confused me but I think she is a comedian: http://www.justthetonic.com/comedy-tours/josie-long-be-honourable/4/

We also got given The Other Side, which is a free London culture magazine which apparently started out as a very low budget zine. It has some brilliant writing in it. http://www.theothersidemag.co.uk/

Our French friend gave us his website; http://www.thehoochiecoochie.com/

At the end of the festival we recieved free copies of The Comix Reader and I admire the work of Richard Cowdry; who is also the editior. http://www.thecomixreader.com/

I bought a zine from a girl named Sofia (from Sweden) called something like From Dusky Armpits, unfortunately I left it in Essex but I think their website is http://kollasling.blogspot.com/ Also I can't actually understand the website...


Here's some photos!
