| East Village Inky, Ayun Halliday |

Ayun's zine is about raising her kids in Brooklyn, NY, and trying to do so
in an ethical and artistic manner. Issues normally include recipes, advice
from the father (written by her spouse, Broadway show author Greg Kotis),
comix, photobooth photos, recommended NYC spots and events, and articles on
local and national politics, international travel, and the trials and joys
of parenting.

Having started her zine in 1990,
China is one of the pioneers of the genre,
especially when it comes to mamazines. She was a young anarchist punk
rock mother who didn't feel that the mamas in her community had enough
support, so she began delivering articles on radical parenting to her
compañeras in an age before the Internet made that easy. This zine
really makes you think about how you should deal with children and
respect them. China is still making zines, as is her 18 year old
daughter, Nadja (also known as Clover).
