This zine is centered around Yoongi and the relationships he shares with every member in BTS.The official name of the zine is, The Book of Min: Tales of a Thousand Worlds.As the title suggests, the zine will be taking on a fairytale-esque format. Fairytales are enormously vast and diverse. This zine will include everything you can think of, whether it be fantasy beings, supernatural beings, or even monsters.Other fantastical elements can include fairies, elves, mermaids/sirens, witches, vampires, werewolves, hybrids, succubi, ghosts, spirits, ANYTHING you can think of that isn't found in the mundane (human) world.We hope to let readers and viewers of the zine feel transported and immersed to different realms every time they turn a page, just like a story book.
As this is a very broad zine when it comes to themes and since it covers everything outside of the natural world, there aren’t many restrictions. We wish to create a zine that is diverse in concepts and themes.If you choose to participate in this zine, you’ll have enough creative room to create anything you want. We do not wish to restrict you creatively. Your stories and art can be loosely based on actual fairy tales, movies, books, songs or anything that inspires you to create. It can also be your own original concept altogether with fantasy themes. If you want to collaborate with another creator, ie. an artist wanting to collaborate with a writer, that can be organized too.Once participants have been chosen, all the participants will discuss their ideas and what they want to do. If you are unsure of what to write or your idea isn’t fully fleshed out, there will be many people to help you and bring your ideas to life.If you are really struggling to come up with ideas since it’s a very broad concept, there will be prompts available for you to claim and get inspiration from. Prompts will come from writers, the mods, as well as the public. We’ll be hosting a prompting event where people can submit prompt ideas and then we’ll make it available for the zine participants to access once they have been chosen.All in all, this zine is meant to have lots of different pieces of art and fics that transport people to different worlds with different creatures, magic, and more.
