Today, we wrap up the Mod Intros by introducing the Host of the Comfortably Queer Zine, Sam:

Hey there, my name is Sam.

I'm a Demi Trans Man from Germany.

I've been active in the Supernatural Fandom since 2018 and have been creating Fancontent for the Fandom pretty much from the start.

You can find me here on Tumblr under @sam2hell for shitposts and rambling and go to @virtualkidz for everything to do with Fanart.

My AO3 handle is Sam2Hell aswell.

I don't really have a "thing" when it comes to writing, I like to explore alot of different things in my works and write whatever comes to mind.

Here is a little reminder that we have a Discord Server for the Zine, where participants can ask questions about the Zine, talk about their progress, and get to know other Participants.

The Server is open for non participants aswell, so you are welcome to join if you only want to get news about the Zine.

A Link to the Server can be found here.

Please read the Rules & Introduce yourself upon entering!

To give you a little peek behind-the-scenes of the comfy queer 'zine, we're hosting a little meet'n'greet with our three 'zine mods over a couple of days.

This time around we're introducing Kaira:

Hey all, I'm Kaira! I'm arose (aro and ace) and I use she/her and neopronouns mostly. You can find me on Tumblr as @sugaraddictarchangels and on Ao3 as imaturtledontchaknow - I'm a multifandom mess of interests on both platforms (and anywhere else you can find me), so don't expect much thematic coherency.

Multi-"shipping" - although I don't really ship anything, as such - is my true love; I'm open to most any ship in most any fandom, so you'll pretty much never find me keeping to just an OTP/OT3/etc, or even a singular blorbo; I love delving into all of the corners of a fandom and seeing what people love.
