Unleash Your Creativity with ZINETOBER: A Month of Zine Making

[@SierraDeCarmen]

Rest assured you are not just blabbering to the camera; your shared knowledge is valuable and appreciated. The zine you showcased here is amazing! Not only is the kind of reading that can deeply touch another person, but it is also a text-heavy/wordy zine (those are my favorites!) Thanks for another great video.

[@brattyxbre]

Thank you, Sierra I really appreciate this 💞🙏🏽 I love that you’re into text heavy zines, too! Sometimes it just feels good to WRITE

CONTENT WARNING . . . . . . . . . you were very helpful sharing your personal story, the same thing happened to me except he followed through, he died. he told me if I left he would kill himself and then he did. Ive been broken ever since I started making zines with the help of your channel and bc I have so much personal crap to work through thanks to you, I finally found an appropriate medium to express my personal narrative art, wish me luck on my journey I am so grateful for you and your content. THANK YOU

[@brattyxbre]

First I want to say I am so incredibly sorry for what happened to you. I know you’re still working through this but please always remember that what he chose to do is not your fault (I know that doesn’t make it any easier to accept) I’m glad we could connect but it’s a bit unfortunate it’s under these circumstances, I just really hate you have to carry this pain. But on the bright side I’m happy you discovered zines as an outlet! Zines help me through my trauma too. Keep going!! Sending you lots of love ❤️

[@savannahwoods3222]

@@brattyxbre thank you so very much

[@tiantuatara]

"Someone can struggle with mental health and still be an asshole" - absolutely!! Good for you for getting out of the relationship. It's usually not clear to anyone else when someone is trying to manipulate you. Having a creative outlet is really important.

[@brattyxbre]

Couldn’t agree more 🙏🏽 Thank you for listening to what I had to say, I really appreciate that. Happy Sunday! 💞

[@happynaturalist1793]

I LOVE that you make it deep. This is what creation is about. I found your channel at a dark time in my life, and you and zines are helping me get through. So thank you. And thanks for being real. The world needs more of that.

[@r.l.howard8459]

Seconding this, you said it!!!! 💖

[@brattyxbre]

This is so reassuring and sweet! I’m sorry to hear about your difficult times but I am sending you lots of love and this virtual hug 🫂 !! Thank you for taking the time to watch my video, it means the world to me 💞

[@KeriExpression]

I'm doing the Munich Zine Library list! After making my first zine last month, I made a few more some friends, so this month I'm gonna focus on making them just for me. Surprisingly, I have an idea for each prompt already, so I'm excited! Also, hello from a fellow October Scorpio🦂

[@brattyxbre]

Scorpio gang 😈🦂 Happy almost bday!! Have fun makin’ those zines!!

[@brattyxbre]

That’s what I like to hear!

[@princegoatcheese9379]

I recently got into making collage art. It's fun to cut out stuff from old magazines or print some things out manually, cut them up and mash them together with tape and glue. I don't see a lot of collage art around (they're out there, I just can't find that many recent examples), so I hope to throw my hat into the ring. Even if the final piece I make doesn't make any sense thematically whatsoever, it's just the fun of making stuff that keeps my hands and mind busy. Excellent idea, Bratty!

[@brattyxbre]

Collage art is such a fun way to express yourself. It really goes hand in hand with zine making since both are very much DIY and a bit messy - I love it! If you haven’t heard of this collage artist already, might I suggest you check out Chaotic Collage on Instagram (I love their work) 👇🏽 instagram.com/cha0tic_collage?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==

[@aimeemorgado8715]

I love collage! I use it n all my art journals, altered books, junk journals, and illustrations. Keep it up- you will see more and more. Keep making things to make you happy , or challenge your skills and creativity. Best wishes for great joy and discovery.

[@aimeemorgado8715]

I’m in my 60s and you speak to me! Gonna give Zinetober a shot- no more excuses to just try it. No matter what- if we try it we’ll learn more about our art, ourselves, and the importance of creativity. Thank you!!!!’

You are so welcome, I am so touched by your comment! Thank you for listening 💞🙏🏽

[@kateryneart]

I always enjoy your videos and have learned a lot from you about making zines. Be true to yourself. The world tries to make everyone the same. That was never my desire but I’m pretty much a loner (happily so). I enjoy doing my own thing and never feel I have anything to prove to anyone. Family are the people I choose to share my time with when I’m free. 🤗

[@brattyxbre]

So true! I am the same way and feel very comfortable being alone ☺️💞 Thank you for always taking the time to watch my videos and connect with me. I hope you enjoyed your tiny zine fest mail!! X

omg! i've been following you for a while now, desperately wanting to make zines. i have all the materials i need, i have a list of ideas going, but haven't made shiiiiiiit lol but i'm feeling sooo motivated and determined now!!! i love how you didn't provide a specific list to use, because i usually feel so limited when following a specific inktober. i just feel stuck and it discourages me. this feels so free and like, do whatever you want, just be consistent, and i love and appreciate it so much! thank youuuuu!!!
