YOU

YOU (November 2001-) zine takes the form of an anonymous letter addressed to you from various writers, usually handwritten, often sealed in a paper bag, and distributed anonymously within Melbourne, VIC, Australia on a weekly basis since November 2001. The letter is often signed off 'from Luke' but may also be written by different people.

YOU is freely circulated in Australia (Melbourne, Bendigo, Castlemaine, Traralgon, Sydney, Adelaide, Wollongong, and Perth), the U.S.A. (Chicago, San Francisco, Portland, Kansas City) and the U.K. (London and Glasgow). It is also distributed internationally by Microcosm Publishing.

An anthology of YOU zine, YOU: some letters from the first five years (2007) published by Breakdown Press, has been released and compiles selections of the first five years of the project. This anthology was launched at the National Young Writers Festival as part of This is Not Art (TINA) festival in September 2007.
