FAQ
What is a zine? A zine, short for fanzine, is a compilation of artwork and written works made by fans. They’re similar to a collaborative artbook or an anthology.
Will other characters and/or ships be featured? Other characters are welcome as side characters, but since the main focus of this zine is Childe/Zhongli, other explicit ships will not be allowed.
Are AUs allowed? Yes, AUs are welcome! Contributors are encouraged to explore a variety of teas and tea cultures in this zine, from fictional universes to real-life cultures!
Will you have guests? Yes—all guests will be introduced on social media, so keep an eye out!
Who is allowed to apply? Anyone aged 16 and above by October 25th, 2022 will be able to participate in the zine. Contributors under the age of 16 should have the approval of a guardian and can be paid through a guardian's PayPal.
Do I need to have zine experience to apply? No experience is needed to apply! The mods are happy to welcome those new to zines, and have plenty of experience to help contributors in every step of the process.
Will my ship and content preferences affect my chances of acceptance? Applicants will not be rejected based on their personal ship and content preferences.
Can I still apply if I like Zhongchi more than Tartali, or only have Zhongchi samples? Applicants that prefer Zhongchi are welcome to apply, and may apply with samples that include Zhongchi as long as the piece created for the zine is Tartali.
Can I apply for more than one position? Yes, though you will only be selected for one position.
Will I get an email even if I’m rejected? Yes, result emails will be sent to all applicants regardless of if they are accepted or rejected.
