New zine survey

Okay, so the choices have been narrowed down a bit, and we need to agree upon a title.

Based on popular vote, we will have a very colorful zine, probably with an all-over design. We are lucky enough to have a local artist helping us out on this project - Paul Morgan, an artist/printmaker from Oakland, has volunteered to help us print (and design, if we want) the covers.

Please check out his work here and decide if you would like him to design a cover using our ideas, or tell me if you are interested in designing the cover.

After that, you can take the new survey!

Also, to address the other comments you made:
1. Yes, of course we will sell it at Lowell High School! We will also give copies to the school library along with the San Francisco Public Library's zine collection.
2. Matt, we can certainly send a copy to Obama! I'm also going to send one to Sherman Alexie since his writing inspired us.
3. Our audience is the general public - not just Lowell High School! That's why I suggested you may want to give your reader a brief intro to your community using the info you collected in your group research project. Adults may read it, teenagers such as yourselves may read it. I am also putting a few out for sale at the stores I showed you in the powerpoint - if you remember, one is in Chicago and one is in Portland, so our readers won't just be from California.
