SPARK blogger Britney is currently working on issue one of her zine, Grrrl Angst, and is looking for submissions. She says:

“Grrrl Angst” is a zine that I am in the process of making. It focuses on feminism in some aspects but it mostly just about the angst and different things that comes with being a girl (especially a teenage girl). You can either choose to be someone who contributes to the zine every issue or a one-time guest writer.

Take it from SPARKteam member Melissa—a store-bought costume won’t win you the good prizes! And we’ve got some amazing prizes in our costume contest with Hollaback Philly and Beauty Redefined. Need ideas? Check out Hollaback’s DIY suggestion post. And don’t worry, a good homemade costume is easier than you think: I have it on excellent authority that Melissa is awful at crafts and most DIY-related things, and she still kills it year after year. 

BRONTESAURUS! “Comes with barrier-breaking feminist vision!”
