Templates

You can use any kind of zine template or make your own template, but I've come up with a few places to get you started. The templates page offers standard zine numbering templates as well as print-and-fill options

Before making the zine, decide:
* Do you want to include the survey in the zine?
* Which 5 topics will you explore every month in each zine?
* Which 3-5 items will you explore from your therapy in this zine, and how will you do so?
     - Creative interpretation, summary/words, diagrams or drawings, illustrations, etc
     - How many pages do you plan to use for each? Challenge yourself to be succinct.
* What size will the zine be?
* How many pages will the zine be?
* Does the zine need a back cover?
* Does the zine need an intro or outro page?

This article provides some other things to consider: How to make a zine

Suggested page order

My page order differed for each zine but they generally addressed the same topics overall. You can go in any order you want, but I'm including a suggested page order for people who don't know where to start, or prefer to be told what to do.

Examples

See the suggestions I've given in action! I won't be sharing every page since some of them are super personal but you can find what I did my first year of Zine Therapy on the examples page.
