Check-In #6: First US Zines SHIPPED...And More Exciting Updates
Hello all! The mods have returned from our hiatus...with Sleep Token shows under our belts! Ares, Conduit and Destiny saw ST twice, and Xen got to see them once.
Despite our vacation time, we have been working hard behind the scenes, and we have updates to share. But first - we have an announcement, which you might already know if you're in the zine Discord.
If you're going to see ST in the future, please hang on to your zine copies and don't try to give them to the band...because they already have one!
At one of our shows, Ares brought a copy in hopes of getting it to the band via the merch table. Well, III took it upon himself to snatch it out of Ares' hands at the end of The Offering. So, there's no doubt the boys have seen our participants' incredible art and writing. How exciting!
Speaking of getting zines into the hands of important people - you! If you live in the USA and you responded to our email, there's a good chance your zine is in your mailbox right now, or will be before the end of the week! Ares and Conduit spent last weekend printing shipping labels and packaging up zines, and on Friday (Sept 22) we sent our first 30 orders out! Our quality control officer Curtis (seen below) made sure everything looked good before we left, too. We will reach out to you individually if we come across any issues (undeliverable, etc) - otherwise email us at worshipfanzine@gmail.com for questions or concerns.
PLEASE tag us on Twitter, Tumblr, or in the zine Discord when you get your zines, we would love to see them!
If you have NOT responded to our email - please check your Spam, as a few people let us know it got filtered in there unfortunately. You will be able to fill out your shipping info and pay for your shipping through Itch.io. Thank you SO MUCH to everyone who has made this process run smoothly so far, as well as those who have donated a little extra to help our International and Community Fund folks get their zines shipped wherever.
[Conduit Finances Update: As promised, in order to pay for shipping labels, we withdrew the funds we have collected so far from the Itch campaign. Here's proof of that. The funds needed for the first 30 orders ($115) went into our Stamps.com account, and the rest went into our Zine account. We will continue to draw from Itch and the Zine account to pay for shipping as needed!]
Community Fund folks - you're next to receive an email from us, so keep your eyes peeled in the next few days for that.
International folks, we are creating a separate form from the US/Community Fund because shipping works a bit differently for you. It will function as follows:
1. You will give us your name/address/country etc so that we can get the most direct quote from our carrier, and so we can also fill out a Customs form.
2. We will email you DIRECTLY with the shipping quote and a link to pay for shipping through Itch.io. If you are able, you can go ahead and pay. If you need assistance financially, we can allot some of our donations to help offset the costs - we will discuss this through email. This WILL be on a first-come, first-serve basis with the exception of Australian recipients, so please do not wait to respond if you think you will need extra help.
Expect to receive this form around the second week of October!
And that's about it for now. As always, worshipfanzine@gmail.com or message us in the zine discord for any questions or concerns. We'll be back with more info soon.
