List

[list.] is a perzine that is written only in list form. It is written by Ramsey Beyer, a girl from Paw Paw, Michigan, who now resides in Baltimore, MD. Each list is illustrated with a cartoon drawn by Ramsey. [list.] zine also always includes three sections, lists Ramsey writes herself, lists she finds, and lists that other people write for her zine. Ramsey takes submissions for guest lists. Email ramseybeyer@gmail.com to find out how to submit.

Reviews

This is almost exactly what you'd expect it to be - a zine filled with LISTS for just about everything - the lists Ramsey, a young woman from a small town, writes, finds, and contributor lists. However it's not just that simple. While list is essentially just a series of lists, it defines her character over the course of these pages. It's like an ongoing personal saga where you get to know her through reading her lists. She is a tremendously talented illustrator as well, and we get plenty of eyecandy along the way. -joe biel, microcosm publishing
