Hi Everyone
I mentioned making a Hold Steady zine last year, well i finally got my arse into gear and am ready to go! I have just created a Facebook group for the project
www.facebook.com/groups/949133598759235/
All the details are on there but i have posted them below as well in case you don't use Facebook.
I can't wait to read all your stories.

What the hell is this all about?
So I am a little bit obsessed with The Hold Steady and want to create a zine with other folks who feel the same.
Sounds good, can i get involved?
Yes please! I am looking for contributions from anyone who loves the band.
What type of stuff are you looking for?
This is the fun part, it can be anything really. Write about how you discovered the band, your favourite show, the friends you have made thanks to the band, illustrations, poetry, comics , interviews with the band/other fans, the story about your Hold Steady tattoo or ANYTHING related to the band.
I have never written anything before, this is for professional writers right?
Wrong! This is all about our shared obsession with The Hold Steady, the more first time submissions the better.
How long have I got?
Deadline for submissions is November 1st 2019.
Okay, how much is this going to cost me?
Absolutely nothing. I will be printing them up myself and sending out a free copy to everyone who contributes. I will sell any extra copies at to pay for the cost of printing. This isn't about making money, it is about creating something and documenting the amazing Hold Steady fan community.
Sounds good but I have questions.
Just post in this group or send me a DM and i can help you out with any questions.
