Thoughts Of You - A Dennis Wilson fanzine Issue 1

[Jenna Appleseed]

I’ve finally managed to get my Dennis Wilson (Beach Boys) fanzine finished . (ugh - zines are hard) *rolling_eyes*
https://gumroad.com/l/DWZ1

PDF only as until recently I’ve mostly not had access to printers/photocopiers. (still hoping to do a print issue in the future when I get enough hi-res content)

It’s more indie / art /wandering into perzine style than trad Beach Boys/music fanzine.

Contents include: photo features inc. unofficial t-shirts from Bathroom Wall, a personal Valentine’s Day tribute; what Dennis, The Tug Of Love, & You Are So Beautiful mean to me - including a little bit about being on the autistic spectrum & emotionally abused., Dennis Wilson For President t-shirts, thoughts on a spot of facebook wtf***ery re Dennis, Carrie Fisher & the Inauguration (a combined kinda rant re claims The (current touring) Beach Boys were going to play at the Inauguration / tribute to Carrie Fisher), an appropriate quote from Dennis; photos by Erin nicole , Star Wars mash up art by Why The Longplay face?; tributes to a lost mate; why this zine is fundraising for homelessness charity Simon On The Streets - including my thoughts and quotes re Dennis’ support & connection with homeless people.; Forever inspired artwork by Gino Dal Cin; a competition to win a vinyl replica cd of Pacific Ocean Blue plus more…

Content/trigger warning: contains brief mentions of abuse and mental illness, and a small amount of swearing.
& if you’re avoiding current US politics it’s best to skip pages 46-48.

It’s pay what you want/ pay what you feel on gumroad (minimum £1), & all proceeds minus fees will be going to grassroots homeless charity, Simon On The Streets.

68 page pdf £1+

I just replied but my reply isn’t showing

It’s free on itch & reduced on gumroad until some point tomorrow

Holiday sale ends 6:00pm on itch (I’m not not sure what timezone)
https://itch.io/s/26605/holiday-sale-free-fanzine

and it’ll end on gumroad when I remember to change the price back.

(both are pay as you feel so you can pay more that 0 or 59p if you want and all profit will go to homelessness charity Simon On The Streets).

eta: looks like trying to include two links hit some kind of spam filter?

Got better quality promo pics and some zine merch up on gumroad now https://gumroad.com/dwfanzine

and a lot more preview images up on imgur so you can kind of have a virtual flick through

Did a bunch of zine promo while virtual tabling for kczine con #6 - sticking them here on one page so it’s easier to share. “As you can’t have a virtual flick through before buying here’s some zine spoilers / previews for issue 1”
