Hi! I’m new to this but I have some experience with advertising. I am also currently a writing mod for Ace/Isuka zine as well! I shall do my best to keep everything up to date and make sure there is open conversation with everyone involved. I adore Thatch because he was the first person to be openly welcoming to Ace!Skye

Hey everyone! I've written for zines before, but this is my first time actually being a mod, so I'm super excited to be part of this project. Thatch always struck me as a really kind person, reaching out to Ace when he was so obviously struggling, so I'm happy to be showing Thatch some love in return!Foz

FAQ
+ Will reader insert items be accepted into the zine?
The zine is for canon content only and Thatch’s relationships with other canon characters, you can however apply with a reader insert item if you like.
+ Will AU/Alternate Universe be allowed?
Yes! Canon-compliant timelines where he's still alive, he ate the fruit, anything like that is totally allowed. Feel free to come up with a fun backstory or any personal headcanons you have for him! We don't know a lot about Thatch and seeing what people bring will be exciting.We will also accept Alternate Universes: modern, fantasy, etc. Anything you can think of! As long as it's Thatch-centered it will be allowed.
+ How many pieces are we required to do if we get accepted?
For writers, we are allotting from 1k to 3k words that can be spread out among a few smaller pieces, or you can have your entire allotted words in just one piece.For artists we expect one full colour completed piece per artist, there might be room for other doodles, chibi style or just smaller pieces in general.For merch artists, items will be delegated to each person. Ideally, each person will pick/be given a merch item to design [a bookmark/recipe cards/etc]For chefs, pictures of your finished food item, detailed step by steps, measurements, as if you were preparing a page for a cookbook!
