Writer's Lab: Music Fanzine Workshop

with Daryl Gussin of Razorcake

Daryl Gussin presents a 90-minute hands-on workshop on zine creation. This program is sponsored by the Friends of the Willow Branch Library.

In Music Fanzine Workshop attendees will tackle fandom of art (specifically music) as a creative avenue to build community through collaborative projects. Instructor Daryl Gussin of fanzine Razorcake will offer a historical and personal background on the medium and then every participant will be guided through the process and walk away with their own music fanzine, and copies of all the other attendees'.

Daryl Gussin is a writer and musician who has been awkwardly standing around at punk shows for the last twenty-something years. Thankfully at some point in his late teens he decided to become a little more productive, and has been working on zines, setting up shows, and playing in bands consecutively since then. In 2006, he became integrally involved in Razorcake fanzine where he is currently the managing editor. His writing revolves around the honest, bittersweet, and ultimately triumphant aspects of counterculture and its flavorful inhabitants. The heartbreaks, the implosions, and the defiant victories. Community over commercialism, create and destroy.
