Changes: New 'Zine: Dallas Brawl - Dead 'zine: Canadian Fur Magazine
----- last overall update: Fall 2002 -----
From Felyne32K:
Hello there! About a year ago, I noticed that
/Lynx's Swiped Incomplete List of Zoomorphic Publications/
had some extremely old entries, dating back as far as '92, with an
average around '95. Some had website listings. Others didn't. Some
had submission guidelines, while others didn't. One 'zine even had
two entries. Anyhow, I emailed Lynx about it, and got more or less
drafted into updating the monster...
Countless bounced emails, at least twenty hours of work, and several
reformattings later, I've come up with a brand-new, completely
updated list! I hope you enjoy it.
-Felyne32k
From Lynx:
Thanks to Felyne32K, to whom I will be transferring ownership
of the list. Yes, this is now Felyne32K's Swiped Incomplete List
of Zoomorphic Publications. ('gryn) Please send any corrections or
new issue submissions to Felyne32K at Fely...@softhome.net ...
Thanks to all of the listed 'zine editors who have updated their
entries with Felyne32K as well. You've helped make the transition
much easier.
-- Lynx
Some Compiler's Notes:
- Foreign currency calculations can be done at Bloomberg Online:
http://www.bloomberg.com/markets/currency/currcalc.cgi
- New submissions and updates are greatly welcomed! Please email
me at Fely...@softhome.net if you publish a 'zine, know of one not
on this list, or simply want to update your entry. A blank form has
been included at the end of this posting.
- A number of Shanda Fantasy Arts publications have been left out.
While they accept submissions, they tend to circle around
preestablished characters and storylines.
I encourage those who may be curious to visit the SFA website
at www.furnation.com/shanda/.
(Lynx: this FAQ was started with the notion of recording 'fanzines'
which accept submissions of original stories and artwork. I've asked
Felyne32K to continue that tradition. Furrlough is counted as it is an
'anthology' comic of the stories artists/authors choose to contribute.
Tai-Pan is borderline as any creator may invent new characters and
storylines in that universe and is published in a fanzine format.)
- Dates in {brackets} indicate when the entry was last updated
or confirmed (i.e. the editor contacted to make sure all information
was up-to-date).
- Suggestions are always welcome. Please email as per submissions
and updates. I promise to keep as open a mind as I possibly can.
- While never required, sample copies are always much appreciated.
Hey, I can hope, can't I? ^.^
- Notes are almost always lifted verbatim from the entry sent
to me. I do not guarantee the veracity of any of the notes. Any
of my own comments will always be indicated in a
COMPILER NOTE:
- If this is of any help to any of you out there, feel free to
drop me an email (my address is listed a few times above); it's nice
to know that all this work has helped *someone*...
- Special thanks to Sven Tegethoff for updating some of these
email addresses!

www.vision.nais.com/books/aja/
Editor: Darrell Benvenuto
Email: con...@vision.nais.com
Type: Industry Black Book
Price: $10.00 USD
Backissues: All back issues still available
Frequency: Annual
Subscriptions: Not available
Size: 8.5 x 11"
Format: Perfect-bound

Rating: "G" Preferred, up to "PG" Accepted
Membership Requirements: Acceptance by Committee
Submission Guidelines: Those desiring to submit work to the
AJA need to request a submission pack. This pack contains
instructions for submitting, together with a contract that
protects the rights of the artist.
An online submission system is planned to be available
in 2001. Information on this is available on the company Web
Site.
Compensation: Artists whose work is chosen to appear each receive
10 complimentary copies of the AJA, which is equal to $100 in
table sales. Additional copies (up to 100) can be purchased from
the company by artists for 50% off the cover price.
Notes: The American Journal of Anthropomorphics is one of the most
well-established and professional publications to ever arise from
the fandom. Its pages have always been graced with the best and
brightest of the artists in the genre, and as it continues into
the new millenium, the Journal is expected to remain in the
forefront, and eagerly received by its fandom.
The AJA is unique in that it is simultaneously a book -and-
a magazine, possessing both ISBN and ISSN numbers. Copies can be
purchased in any book store in the world that orders through
either INGRAM or Baker & Taylor (the two largest book distributors
in the world). As part of the Journal's overall promotional
effort, copies of this book are sent out to advertising agencies,
package design companies and graphic art houses, helping to
generate commissions and income for its featured artists. Unlike
most Industry Black Books that charge artists hundreds or
thousands of dollars per page to have their work featured in such
a fashion, appearance in the AJA is free to its contributing artists.
Contributors: Very long list. See website.

Notes: INTERCEPTED is a lot like a role playing game with no dice,
no character sheets, and very few rules. It's been nicknamed
"the Multiversal Party Line" and consists primarily of in-
character conversations between anybody the members care to
imagine, against whatever backgrounds they care to use. You may
use as many aliases as you like; your own characters, other
fictional characters, historical characters, and pretty much any
alias nobody else is using is acceptable (with the exception that
should the creator of a character join, they do have priority if
they want it.) About the only limit to content is that if it
would require this thing to be limited to adults only or grosses
out Ye Ed it won't get printed.
(Hint - if you can't be tasteful, at least be funny.)
