In her Mastodon post, where I came across this, Bonni Stachowiak calls herself a "dork" but I absolutely love that she went to the trouble of recording an unboxing video of my zine.

…

Exciting! The final version of my first ever zine has arrived.

It's looking great and the tweaks that I've made after the test print have turned out perfectly.

I'm anticipating getting these into people's hands in early September. There'll only ever be 50 physical copies (no digital version) and there are currently 12* remaining.

…

I'm back to work today so, in between client meetings, I've been working on doing the final edits to my zine Field Notes on Productive Friction.

A pocket guide to noticing the frictionless tools that remove your agency, containing eight patterns of capture, plus one self-administered audit. Making the case for reflection over convenience in a world of doomscrolling.

Team Belshaw is on holiday for a week. If you're still pretending to work, this is a great time for you to catch up on:

• Notes in this Substrate digital garden since I started it a few months ago
• What Tom and I have been up to with FIELD STATION
…

Yo dawg, I herd you like zines, so I put an zine in your zine https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5iYAMYsWMM8

(I said I might do this...)

I've just sent off my first-ever zine to the printer for a sample copy!

CW-PUB-001 / FNO-001: Field Notes on Productive Friction

(currently 23/50 copies remaining, there will be no digital version)

So I'm currently working on a 40-page zine on Productive Friction but if I was making a much smaller one I would absolutely be using this. In fact I still might use this and create a "zinette" (my term) to go with the main zine.

…

Last night, having watched the Champions League final, I spent an enjoyable couple of hours trawling Are.na for links and other resources relevant to my upcoming zine: Field Notes on Productive Friction:
