Sweet Olive
Sweet Olive was a zine from Dublin, Ireland.
The author of Sweet Olive, Natalia, is American, and the content of the zine described her times in America and travels back to there. There are writings about travelling around Pittsburgh, Eugene in Oregon, and arriving in Dublin in Ireland. The second issue was an interviews issue called the ‘New Orleans Interviews.’
While in America, Natalia teamed up with the New Orleans zinesters Ammi Emergency, Ethan Clark, John Gerken and Willie Jones, who embarked on a tour of the east coast they called the Y'erd Me? Zine Tour. The selections from Sweet Olive read by Natalia on the tour were later reprinted in the compilation zine Y'erd Me?, which documented the participating zinesters and their writing.
Natalia now runs a zine and music distro in Dublin with Willie Jones called Stitchy Press which is planning on publishing books and already has released a CD.
