The next Library Journal zine reviews column, due out on the internet in early September will review zines by people who came out of "retirement" to create a new zine after at least five years. For my 500 word introduction I interviewed each of the zine publishers reviewed. With only 500 words (and really that was probably too long), I couldn't include all of the great stuff each person had said. Therefore, I'm posting all of the interviews here. The penultimate interviewee is Ailecia Ruscin, who went ten years between issues of Alabama Grrrl. The out-of-retirement issue is a split with Ciara Xyerra's Love Letters to Monsters. Unfortunately Ailecia was very pressed for time and could only respond to one of the questions.

Second installment, Marissa Falco, whose 20th century zines and minicomics include |Nothing|, Citronella, and one of my personal favorite zines, Red-Hooded Sweatshirt (continued into the early 2000s). She's also made one-shots and contributed drawings to a million zines (including mine). Her current zine is Miss Sequential, which is up to issue 4.
