What is a zine?
A zine is a self published collection of fanwork. It is often centered on a fandom, character, or pairing, but the content can be anything.
Where can we get updates on the zine?
We will be using Twitter to announce updates! Twitter will be our main platform, and the carrd will serve as a place to house our links, schedule, and application guidelines!
We are also planning on having an email mailing list, which we will announce on Twitter!
Who are the mods?
You can find information about our Mod team under the Mods tab!
Do you have a schedule?
We do! Our schedule is posted here on the carrd! If we make any changes to it, we will update through twitter.
Will this zine feature guest contributors?
Yes, we’d love to feature guests! Mods are discussing who we want to feature, announcements will be made sometime in the next few weeks.
What kind of content will be included?
The main zine will include SFW content that focuses on Zhongli. Ships will be included, but will not make up the majority of the work. The zine will include art, short stories, and poetry.
There will be a NSFW PDF available for purchase from anyone 18+. All contributors for this PDF will need to show proof that they are 18+ as well. This may also include ships, but the focus will be Zhongli himself.
Will there be merch?
Yes! We have several different types of merch planned, soft and hard!
Will this be for profit or for charity?
For profit!
Will there be any stretch goals?
Yes! We have stretch goals planned and will announce them a few weeks before pro-orders.
With ship content allowed, will it all end up Chili?
We have seen this concern raised a few times, and we want to assure you all that this will not turn into a Chili zine. While there most likely will be at least one Chili art and writing piece, we will not let it overwhelm the zine! We have decided to only include a few pieces of ship content (Chili or otherwise), as we want the main focus to be Zhongli himself.

Mod Ko - Social Media and Shipping
My name is Ko, and I’ve been doing zines for a few years! For this zine, I will be the social media mod, as well as handle shipping. I’ve worked on a few zines in the BNHA fandom(Lowlights, After Hours, Aite), as well as Danganronpa, and am very excited to be modding a Genshin Impact zine! I main Xiao and Diluc, with Kaeya and Venti being my other two party members. I've been playing since the game released. I didn’t get lucky enough to pull Zhongli, so I’m crossing my fingers they’ll release his banner again!
If you'd like to follow my twitter, it's @pyromantyc, though it's mostly just retweets of fanart!

Hello everyone! My name’s Styx and this is my first time working on a Zine. I'm incredibly excited to learn all about the specifics of running a zine. I will be handing shipping with the other head mod Ko! My mains in Genshin are Bennet and QiQi (they’re also huge comfort characters) if that says anything about me, and I’m a huge Zhongli simp.

A fun fact about Mod Tea:
Studying JPN for 5 years now and started Canto/Mando a couple months ago.
Hello old and new faces! I usually go by Keii or Tea and I'm a business accounting graduate working in the field. I started Genshin about a month ago, but I'm already a whale, whoops. I'm a Xiao main waiting for an Albedo rerun. May the stars bless everyone's rolls!

Greetings traveler! I'm Hack and I do a lot of Zines, I just love them too much. I got into Genshin a bit before Zhongli's banner and failed to get him sadly, but I got Albedo and main him instead lol.
