Roach Motel is a zine distro that was founded in early 2013 by local author/artist Kristin M. Roach by partnering with an Ames indie boutique called Where It's At. In May of 2014, a second location was adding in Des Moines Iowa by partnering with the Des Moines Social Club. The distro specializes in Iowa and Midwest authored and themed zines + art, slice of life, comic style, gardening, crafting, creativity, diy, homesteading, and animals. Though they admit to pretty much trying to sell anything you make. Their online store will be opening April 1st, 2013. They are currently looking for new zines to sell on consignment and wholesale. Fill out a consignment form and send in 2-5 copies to have them sold in the distro. Consignment forms are found at http://www.roach-motel.com/submit.
