Hi! My name is Laurel and I am putting together a small Siuaraine fanzine to not only celebrate this beautiful couple that deserved happiness, but to also raise money for the Palestinian Children’s Relief Fund. This zine will feature fanart and fanfic from some of the amazing and writers in the fishwives fandom. This is just an interest check right now to see how many people might genuinely be interested in a printed copy, so I can figure out a realistic print run. If there’s enough interest, I’ll move forward with preorders afterward.

This idea was inspired by @mocong.yuan after she did her recent Siuaraine zine to raise funds for charity, and with her blessing, I wanted to do something similar. It’s been over a year since the show ended, and I thought it would be nice to have a celebration of the fishwives, as I know this couple means a lot to a good number of us.

This is just an interest check right now to see how many people might genuinely be interested in a printed copy, so I can figure out a realistic print run. If there’s enough interest, I’ll move forward with preorders afterward.

Just to be transparent: this zine is not for profit. All sales will first go toward covering production and fulfillment costs, then contributor copies will be sent out, and anything remaining will be donated to the Palestinian Children’s Relief Fund. No mods (me) or contributors will be paid beyond their contributor copies.

If you’re interested in purchasing a copy, please fill out the form in the link in my bio. Your response will really help me with planning!

If you have any questions, feel free to reach out via DM! Thank you so much for your support!

$“Them: You’re so creative.” Me: “Thanks. I used to cry during maths homework.” Apparently years of being emotionally bullied by fractions turned me into an artist. Bit rude of maths to give me character development instead of peace. As a disabled and neurodivergent person, I’ve spent most of my life adapting, overthinking, problem-solving, and trying to function in systems that clearly were not designed with me in mind. So honestly? Creativity became survival. Art helps me process the world when the world itself feels overwhelming. Humour helps me cope because if I don’t laugh, I’ll probably end up arguing with an automatic door that refuses to acknowledge my existence. This page is basically me turning disability, chronic illness, chaos, creativity, awkward life experiences, and dark humour into art and advocacy content. So if you also grew up feeling “bad at things” before realising your brain just works differently — welcome. Pull up a chair. We have trauma and coloured pencils. Follow along for disability advocacy, creativity, chaotic observations, and proof that crying over maths homework can eventually become content creation.

Text over the reel reads: “Them: ‘You’re so creative!’ Me: ‘Thanks. I used to cry lot during math homework’”. The song "Dancing Queen by @abba plays.)$
