Where's Katie?

... .. A Farewell to ‘Zines; Zines: not dead, just retro.

As it happens, Katie already posted a response on the NBCC blog a while back. Here it is:

I wonder what you're basing this theory on. The fact that there are lots of blogs now? Print zines haven't disappeared or been absorbed into the online culture. If anything I'd go so far as to say they're more popular, and have a wider scope, than they did 10 years ago. Have a look at these zine distributors to see how vibrant this culture still is, and has been all along:
Microcosm,
Fall of Autumn, Sweet Candy, and look under "books and zines" on etsy.com, the biggest hottest craft site on the Internet.

Post bumped up.
