"Perzines are about vulnerability and sharing part of yourself with an audience, but Lady Teeth utilizes a whole other kind of vulnerability: the kind achieved when opening up to someone you trust."
- Women Write About Comics

"By the time I reached the back cover, I felt like she and I had gone on a really solid road trip together because we’d had such an in-depth, varied conversation." 
​
- Bianca Barragan, LA Zine Fest

Lady Teeth #9 is the most recent issue of my most current zine. I started writing zines in the mid-90s after a girl down the shore gave me an issue of Cometbus to read. I had never seen a zine before.  Since then I have put 9 issues of Lady Teeth, Sub Rosa (1-7), Girl Swirl (1-13 including 11.5), Sophisti-Femme (1-6) and the following mini zines/one offs/etc: Life Without Booze: Reflections on Six Years Sober, Moods: A zine about covered bridges, An East Coast Girl's Guide to Record Stores in the PNW, Home, A Girl Called Mike, Boshi (1-3), Sid, Boobs & the Milk Cart, Dear Gwen (which appeared in Bust Magazine), Dear Gwen PS, To Stop To Listen and Inside & Out (issues 1-2). I also wrote a book, Heavy Hangs the Head & currently have a monthly mini zine mailorder club.

In October 2015 I spoke on a panel at Boston Zine Fest called "Zines as Radical Resistance" where I discussed how zines are a part of my recovery and sobriety. In April 2016 I was part of a reading for Chicago Zine Fest where I shared a piece from the new issue of Lady Teeth called "Getting Sober & Staying Sober". ​
