Throughout February, both Kickstarter and Crowdfundr are hosting tabletop-related spotlight events in support of Zine Month – also called ZiMo – which celebrates indie creators and the amazing work they do to keep the tabletop space alive and kicking. Helping springboard such zines, including plenty of zines from queer creators, Kickstarter is currently running Zine Quest, while Tabletop Nonstop is Crowdfundr's efforts on the matter.
While TRPGs published this way rarely get picked up by large publishing companies, and would have a heck of a time getting onto the best tabletop RPG list, events like this give creators an opportunity to show off their hard graft and wonderfully ingenious systems to a larger crowd than they would usually be beholden to. So now might well be the time to launch your own Zine, if you've been sitting on an idea for a while.
