After my tutorial, I've come to realise that perhaps what I'm aiming to do, whilst exciting, was perhaps a bit misguided for the purpose of this module. Whilst I intended to create my own zine with characters of my own creation etc I failed to consider the module as a whole. I need to think of my work for this as more than just a zine. How can I carry it further? I must consider the product, the range and the distribution.
With this in mind I've decided to leave behind my initial plans and instead create a narrative zine around the concluding chapter of The Scarlett Letter by Nathaniel Hawthorne. It's a relatively short and easy chapter that I feel shouldn't be too difficult to create, this will allow me time to think more about range and distribution also.
The Scarlett Letter with it's theme of empowered women was one of the inspirations for my work thus far, so it seems fitting to come back to it.
