Dropped/Cancelled Works

This is for transparency purposes, and to explain the reasons why I had to drop, as many of them were mostly not due to my part.
I also would like to show that I have been accepted to many projects because I work hard to be a good mod and to have a good reputation (although I definitely make mistakes, for that I learn).

Organization

Discord:
- I know the zine process like the back of my hand at this point. I come up with task lists for the period in advance and post it in the Discord server for all the mods to see.
- I also have two server templates ready for use - one for regular zine servers, and one for if the mod team wants public channels.
- I have been the one who always manages the DIscord server and channels in my zines, and thus knows the settings, role management, etc. blindfold. I've taught many people on the works of Discord as well, whether my fellow mods, or people who have come to me for help.
- I also always have a channel to keep track of things the mod team learned throughout the zine process!
- I use bots such as MEE6, Carl-Bot, and Friend-Time a lot!
- I'm also in many zine help servers, so I'm able to advertise in those!Documents
- I have templates for EVERYTHING. Whether for emails, posts, forms, etc.! Here's an example.
- My best documents are the Contributor Handbook and Mod Handbook, because no one I have seen has ever done them on spreadsheets, in such an aesthetically pleasing way. the Mod Handbook is where I have guest voting sheet, log in info, tags system, and a place for all mods to fill out info for mod intro posts. The Contributor Handbook has all the links the contributors need to know, Specs and Templates, info on check-ins, info on mods, etc. It has worked for all my projects so far, for both mods and contributors.
- I am proficient in forms - I made mod apps 6 times (HQ Team Zines twice, Narutales, Brewbooks, Avatarots, Anime Olympics), contributor apps in ever zine I've been in, shipping/payment info forms about 3 times (HQ Team Zines, SweetHearts, Narutales, Brewbooks, Soft and Warm, Hanakotoba Bokuaka).
- I am obsessed with Google Sheets. I use it in my daily life, organizing my finances, sorting out what I've watched, sorting out my zine schedule, the list goes on. I know formulas and features so well at this point, I don't even have to search up how to use them.
- I am proficient in GDrive, I am often the one organizing it. I know hidden features for it that makes things so much easier. Don't want to always have to log into Gmail to access GDrive? Put all your docs in a folder and link that in the server. Want it so then only you and the mods can edit the stuff inside it? Put in all of your emails in the Edit Access setting.
- I have helped others countless times on their forms and such as well.Contributors:
- I've done a lot of contributor management for projects that had ranging 20 - 80 people (SweetHearts and Avatarots being the most).
- The majority of my zines I had to arrange people into sections and deal with sign ups for calendars, bonus PDFs, ko-fis, etc. The most challenging ones were Avatarots (assigning ~40 contributors to cards, Potion Brewbooks (determining the sections, making sure there's a good even split of ideas and that the ideas don't repeat, pairing writer-artist-chef, all within a new zine concept not one before; lots of playing by ear), Anime Olympics Zine (we had to make sure there was a good variety of non-fics and fics, had to see who's good with action pieces and who's not, and that the people were willing to provide a variety of fandoms).
- I've tackled various methods to do check-ins: submit via GDrive folders, submit via Dropbox, submit via Discord, and I'm currently trying via Google Form. So if you'd like to do whichever method, I am knowledgeable in them and can help out.
- Also have an easy to use concept spreadsheet I've created to make sure ideas don't overlap.Social Media:
- I've coded Tumblr themes for 8 years with Anime Olympics Zine, AtLA Zine, Narutales, Avatarots, Potion Brewbooks, and Knockout, along with my own personal blogs.
- I always discuss a tag system with the mod team before we post anything. Check out Soft and Warm Zine's tags as an example - I led the discussion for this tag system.
- I always create and manage albums on Twitter to compile things like previews together. I also use threads as much as possible. Check out HQ Team Zines' albums which I managed.
- I've started ensuring that all projects I'm in has a Carrd, or something equivalent to store all info for easy viewing. I usually make my projects' Carrds (with the exception of Soft and Warm Zine's Carrd - I also made that one), and help add and arrange the content in the Carrds of the other projects I'm in.

Communication

Contributors:
- If I have the Communication role, I'm always super timely with my announcements, and make sure the have all the detail but compressed so it won't look like blocks of texts. I also have used Mailchimp, GMass, and Yet Another Mail Merge to send out contributor email updates.
- You'll see me often checking on the Discord server and emails and answering asks and such - I both saved on my phone.Public:
- I'm notoriously known for my Biweekly Updates at this point, since I've been one of the only people I've seen do it for the past 2 years, and I've had some people even ask me to do them for their projects. I often introduce this idea to the projects I'm in. They're so useful, because you can organize all of your updates into those posts and don't have to worry about posting each time something happens (except for emergencies). The public will then know those will come, so they won't ask for updates as much. It also keeps things organized into one tag. Here are a couple of examples: Shirtless Updates, Nekomonday, Biweekly Blooms, Biweekly Brews, Mission Report, Sundae Update.
- I'm also known for my newsletters. Here's an example of a newsletter I created. Here's an example of the newsletter sign up page I've created.
- I always make sure to post mod intros before or during contrib apps so people know who we are!
- I'm lol. pretty well known for helping social media mods with their posts as well, because I know what sort of information needs to be on there that people would want to see.

Social Media

I aim for marketing that's...
- Interactive and Immersive: this allows the audience advertise for us AND we create an experience. I always do contests (Yachi's Contest and Make Your Own Sweet Gijinka being my most successful ones), I've done mascots before (Beverage Zine, and SweetHearts zine was supposed to have one but it didn't work out), I've also thought up of all of Soft and Warm's special promo posts, and so many other projects' events.
- Fitting to the Theme: I do this for all the posts. For intros, I take inspiration from the theme such as stats for One Punch Man, the character intro images for Haikyuu, those ninja cards Kabuto had for Narutales, SweetHearts I came up with the flavor charts and recipes to describe yourself, etc. I also use word play and emojis - rather than just calling mods "Mod ___", or even "Mod [insert character name here], I like creating titles, such as "Catmins" for Big Cat zine, "Royal Court" for the mods in Oikawa Zine, etc. Biweekly Updates are always titled as something witty and in theme. Those sorts of things.
- Funny/Witty/Creative: Love me somma this.

Finance

Creative Merch: What's the fun in merch when you don't consider being creative with them? Within the budget of course.
- Soft and Warm Zine: I was the one to've thought of heart shaped keyrings, holo and rose gold foil prints (for the LGBTQ+ rainbow and romantic colors), wooden pin for the flower theme, and polaroids because sapphics taking lovey dovey pictures??? ADORABLE.
- HQ Team Zines: I was the one to've thought of polaroids, the calendar, and the tote bag. It fits well with the daily life/volleball theme we have going.
- Avatarots: I was the one to have thought of temporary tattoo, GitD sticker, wooden pin.
- Oikawa: I was the one to have thought of the merch list. Am really going full out with plush keychain, planner (because our zine focuses on Oikawa's timeline and thus planner), etc.
- Narutales: Matching icons.
- Potions Brewbook: pretty much everything. Pouch, reusable tea bag paired with charm, tea towel, etc. Been having a blast figuring out how to produce the pouches, tea bags, aprons, tote bags.
- IwaOi: man, everything about the merch list is really creative - I provided most of the merch ideas, but my fellow mods definitely added some awesome ideas. Photostrip, polaroids, charm with dangling part, chained enamel pin, stamped washi tape.
- Phobia: custom bookmark, glow in the dark washi tape, lenticular poster, collector's cards, face mask (this didn't end up coming to realisation but still a dope idea).Eco-Friendly: I always try to find a more eco-friendly alternative!Manu Knowledge:
- I have a HUGE spreadsheet masterlist of manus that I've collected from zine help servers, zine help blogs, conventions, websites like Alibaba, etc. I'm currently developing it to have comparison prices. They have the typical merch items, the more special merch items, and the really unusual but still possible merch items. I also have alternatives to Mixam.
- I've been regularly using Alibaba.Finance Spreadsheets:
- I have made a finance template spreadsheet that is incredibly detailed and easy to read through for even the ones who don't have experience with finance.
- I also have a sheet for tracking production updates that can be shared with the contributors. Currently doing that for Soft and Warm zine, Brewbooks, and Narutales.Working with Shipping Mods:
- I have some projects (Narutales, Brewbooks, IwaOi, Phobia to name a few) where I'm both finance and shipping mod. I also have zines (Oikawa zine, SweetHearts for a time, Hanbok) where I'm working with a shipping mod. The rest of the projects I've been in I closely worked with the finance/shipping mod, especially since I post Biweekly Updates.

Shipping

I just finished my Shenobi zine shipping, Potions Brewbook has most of the products come in, and I'll be finishing up SweetHearts zine shipping this coming January. Will update this with more info after that, along with pictures!I live in Canada, where the shipping from what I've researched is a lot cheaper, 'specially for international (10 USD max for half a pound package). Our shipping services aren't affected by the whole USPS situation either, thankfully!
I also have manus here in Canada that have really awesome merch.I love special packaging! I have a many where I can get custom made tissue paper and mailers, whilst being eco friendly! I'm also exploring other ways to make packaging special and eco-friendly.

Wild Stuff I Went Through as a Mod

- SweetHearts Zine (2018 - 2020): head mod was the only one with experience and dropped out during creations period. She was also the one doing the finance/shipping. I had to use my Paypal for the money, and contact manus without any experience. After a while I slowly started being the only one taking on most of the work. Now, I am taking on shipping because the shipping mod's life situation is preventing them from doing so.
- Team Karasuno Zine (2018 - 2019): I actually wasn't the original creator for this zine. It was a person who invited me in. She turned out to've stolen an identity along with many zine ideas, and was found to have multiple identities, manipulating people into doing all the work for her many zines she was running. There was a huge investigation that had over 50+ people working together - I was in the middle of it, because I had the most contact with her through Team Karasuno Zine. It took a lot of time, but we managed to drive her off. This happened in February 2018.
- Bevarage Zine (2019 - 2020): This zine was actually one the original Team Karasuno Zine creator created. I helped the current head mod drive her off.
