Still Cooking
Applications open now through December 15th.
Essentials
Q: What type of project is this? What is it about?
A: This is a cookbook zine, meaning that not only will it include fic and art like a typical zine, but it will also include several recipes, and the larger focus of the zine will be on food. Thematically, this zine is about Sanji from One Piece.Q: Will this zine be P4P, for profit, for charity, or free?
A: This zine will be p4p. If we sell enough product that production costs are discounted and we end up making a profit, any money made will be donated to a charity voted on by contributors.
Content
Q: Will the zine be SFW or NSFW?
A: The main cookbook zine will be SFW. We will have an additional, smaller zine focused on drink recipes which will also allow NSFW fanworks.Q: Will the zine allow shipping?
A: Yes, both zines will allow shipping without ship restrictions. That said, we will aim for a balanced variety of different ships & gen works so there's something for everyone included.Q: Will AI be allowed on the zine?
A: No. No use of AI in creative works will be allowed in applications or zine works. We will be taking precautions to prevent the usage of AI in the zine.Q: Can I submit fic/artwork/recipes I've already created?
A: Nope. Everyone will be required to create new works specifically for the project.
Participation
Q: Are there any prerequisites to applying?
A: Everyone who applies must be 18+ and must either have a discord account or be willing to create one for the duration of the zine, as we will be using a private server to communicate.Q: Do I need previous zine experience to apply? Am I more likely to be accepted if I have it?
A: No previous zine experience is required, and and whether or not you have any will not impact your chances of acceptance. We will not be asking anyone to list previous zine experience.Q: What's will be the ratio of guests to contributors accepted from applications?
A: We'll be looking for:
10-15 Food/Dessert Contributors | incl. 2-3 guests
5-6 Drink Contributors
5-9 Writers | incl. 1 guest
1-2 Cover Artists | incl. 1 guest
20-30 Page Artists | incl. 3 guests
5 SFW Spread Artists & 2 NSFW Spread Artists
3-5 Merch Artists | incl. 1 guestQ: Will contributors be compensated?
A: Our goal is to provide every contributor with a full physical bundle, free of charge. If we fall short of this goal, our secondary plan would be to provide everyone with a complimentary physical copy of any item they personally worked on. Regardless of which option we end up going with, all contributors will receive a full digital pack as well.
