Today is October 1st, which means that it is Support Our ‘Zines Day when we remind ourselves of how much we all love our ‘zines. Magazines, fanzines, online publications, these are the places from which the best new fiction bubbles up and which need all the financial support they can muster.

So, what can you do to help support our ‘zines? Here are three simple suggestions for ways to support the ‘zines you love to read:

• List the ‘zines you have enjoyed this year, then subscribe / donate to as many as feel you can afford. You can be modest and keep your donations a secret, or you can show off and list your donations on your blog or elsewhere top help encourage others to show their support.
• Send a message to the editor(s) of the ‘zines you like thanking them for their work. Editors make ‘zines happen.
• Publicise your favourite ‘zines on your website, blog and elsewhere.

If you love reading good short fiction and you love good ‘zines, then take a few minutes out of your day and show your support.
