Stovetop Girl
Stovetop Girl, subtitled She's on Fire, is a series of zines by Kari Tervo. The series currently has four issues.
Tervo explains in the introduction to issue #1, "My goal with Stovetop Girl is not to have a goal. Maybe I'd just like to talk about something for a quick second, or show you something neat." The series will contain quick rants, anecdotes, show-and-tell, photos, and whatever else seems cool to share.
Issues #1 through #3 are four pages each, while issue #4 is 12 pages.
