Description

Deep in the hills of Southern Kentucky, a group of trans weirdos with magical powers have gathered, building DIY cabins in the woods, tending to herb gardens, and sharing zines, tattoos, feasts, and gossip: Summer Shade.

As the community prepares for their big Equinox party, Alix, a scrappy punk trans girl whose antennae give her glimpses of the sensations and memories of people around her, is on her way there, guided by a sense that at Summer Shade, she’ll be able to be part of something bigger than her own worries and memories and insecurities.

Summer Shade gives us a world where strange and powerful people come together to take care of each other and build a community.

This is a 100-page PDF file. The lovely cover art is by Katie Kaplan.

When you buy a digital zine, I ask that you think of it in the same way as buying a print copy, meaning that you use it pretty much just for personal use. I’m happy for you to print out a copy for your own use or to share with a friend, but please don’t share or distribute either print or PDF versions more broadly, including by posting the PDF online. If you are interested in distributing it, or otherwise sharing it more broadly, please get in touch and I’d be glad to chat about that!

You can buy a print version here.
