Su Mwamba

Su Mwamba is a mail artist and zinester living in Derby, United Kingdom. She spends her life being side-tracked by various & random creative diversions such as DIY crafts, faux postage, & fairy tales, and her zines are an ever-evolving reflection of that.

Su has written more zines than she cares to remember, many of which are no longer available. She self-publishes under the imprint of The Tangled Press, a name derived from her TangleCrafts blog. All zines are printed on recycled paper or paper from renewable sources. Below is a very selective zinography.
