Zine: Song lyrics I mishear

“Song lyrics I mishear” is a mini zine that lists lyrics where I hear the wrong words. Each page is about one song and includes the actual lyrics along with what I hear instead.

I wanted the interior pages to be a mix of typed text (the actual song lyrics) and handwritten notes (the words I hear). This way, the pages look like they’re annotated.

Zine: Music Discovery Without An App

My inspiration for this zine came from my freshman year of college. The women who lived in the dorm next to me were both radio DJs and often had music blasting in their room. I didn’t mind—they had great taste!—and I found lots of songs I like through them.

The idea of finding music you like through people around you expanded into the pages of this zine.

I tried something new for me—monochrome. Only gray and black pens and markers in this zine. I like how it turned out.

⭐ Physical copies of this zine are now available in my Etsy shop! ⭐
