+ We Do a Bit of Editing


FIXES, EDITS, ETC

The zine has been edited primarily to encourage readability and a bit better formatting. This has been an on and off thing I did over the course of Spring. The zine now is formatted optimally for future editing which means when I edit in the future, I can focus on one page at a time. Before, I struggled a bit due to transitioning from Scribus to Affinity.

There are things I would do differently if I had started with Affinity before Scribus

List of edits are as follows:

  • Reworded some things I felt were unclear or I felt I could articulate a bit better. 
  • Exported everything at an optimal size for digital consumption and download
  • Tried to fix more of the capitalization for Black; this can be one of the more difficult things to catch as although I have some grammar checkers now, they do not capitalize Black by default much of the time
  • Made the addendum slightly less rambley though it is still extremely rambling
  • Tried to make the typesetting a bit better (though I believe I may redo the typesetting entirely someday in the future)
  • I included some additional thoughts on masculinity, my identity as a lesbian, etc.

As always, due to having a migraine disorder, I at times introduce more errors when editing my old work. I hope to give the zine a lookover again soon though I may have one of my friends do some more in depth editing and fixing for me.

Thank you!
