subscribe to paper trail distro!
the subscription program was launched in the fall of 2007 & now it has undergone an overhaul. new & improved paper trail distro subscriptions work like this: a single subscription ($50 within the u.s., $60 everywhere else due to postage costs to mail packages internationally) is good for an entire year. every three months (in january, april, july, & october), subscribers will receive a package containing six zines recently added to the distro catalogue, the paper trail distro newsletter (info on new zines, zinester interviews, columns on the current state of the zine world, etc), & a crafty surprise (i've been making these myself--1" pins, t-shirts, mix tapes, handbound blank books, notecards, all kinds of stuff). i am now accepting orders for subscriptions starting in january 2009. order before december 31 & you will receive subscription packages in january 2009, april 2009, july 2009, & october 2009. see the frequently asked questions page if you need more info on the subscription program. or order!:

assorted zine collections!
on the main page, i have included three lists categorizing some of the zines in the catalogue. there is a listing of the ten newest additions to the catalogue, the ten best sellers, & my personal top ten random choices at the moment. these lists are always changing as items come in & go out of stock, as surprising new zines capture people's imaginations, & as my own tastes morph & shift. but i am going to experiment with turning each of these lists into a collection that readers can purchase while simultaneously saving some money! (i do reserve the right to substitute items in any collection if a zine goes out of stock while an order is in transit. ordering online is the easiest way to assure that the item you want will be in stock when you place an order--this goes for every item in the catalogue, of course.)

the collections are as follows:
the new additions collection is currently comprised of "basic paper airplane" #2, "brainscan" #23, "dirty love" #1, "invincible summer" 2009 calendar, "jesus christ superzine" #1, "messy dog/messy baby," "root" #5/"stab" #7, "skinned heart" #2, "toothworm" #3, & "skills". this collection is a good choice for readers looking for an easy way to stay on top of what's new in the zine scene.


the hot sellers collection includes "doctrinal expletives" #3, "doris" #26, "it's not the end of the world!: building a life with limp wrists," "keep loving keep fighting" #8, "love letters to monsters" #1/"up the logic punks!" #1, "skinned heart" #1, "telegram ma'am" #14, "truckface" #12, "up the logic punks!" #2, & "we all have bones". this collection is a good selection for readers new to the zine scene.

the ciara's choice collection is made up of "big hands" #1, "ghost pine" #7, "glossolalia" #6, "headlock," "i am the city" #2, "kiss off" #10, "mine: an anthology of women's choices" #1, "not sorry" #5, "rice harvester" #13, & "toothworm" #1. this collection is a nice well-rounded selection from all corners of the catalogue, a good option for people that are overwhelmed by the selection.

all three collections are also available together for only $50, a huge savings & a really simple way to dive headlong into the world of zines--& more specifically, the paper trail catalogue.
any two collections are available for only $35. click the first button for new additions & hot sellers, the second button for new additions, & ciara's choice, or the third button for hot sellers & ciara's choice.
