About Me

We write the zines Adventures in Menstruating (sometimes erroneously but persistently known as Adventures in Menstruation to those who prefer nouns to gerunds) and Chart Your Cycle. We also do a comedy live show and impro workshops.

Email us.

Look at our blog.

There's more stuff at our website.

My Interests

Full-contact Scrabble. Partying like it's 1999. Making up stupid songs and being banned from singing (Chella). Banning Chella from singing, for the greater good (Sarah). Even though they are quite comical and generally...(Chella). Shut up, Chella (Sarah).

I'd like to meet:

Most of the people who want to meet us, except for the ones who want to kill us and eat us. We don't want to meet them.

Music:

Between us, we kinda like everything.

We should also state here that we would have Queen Kong's babies, have Partied with the Weirdo, and are Valerie's official groupies. You heard it here first.

Movies:

Oldskool kid adventure movies where no one (major) dies (on screen). Like The Goonies. You know what I'm talking about.

Why isn't there a theatre category? Let's make one.

Theatre: Told by an Idiot, Complicite, and, for old time's sake, David Ives.

Television:

Spaced:1)The older you get, the younger everyone in charge gets. Corollary to 1)You will never be in charge.

QI: Queer eye for the intelligent guy.

Life on Mars and Doctor Who: Yay for the BBC!

Sesame Street: Thank you, You Tube, for hosting the "Milk Crisis" film.

Books:

Lots of zines. Francesca Lia Block. Judy Blume. E. L. Konigsburg. Early Bill Bryson. Maureen Lipman's now defunct G2 column. Many, many others. So many it hurts. Make the pain of book addiction stop!

Heroes:

I preferred the first season to the current one, but I do have a very short attention span, so you be the judge.

Sorry to say it, but these blogs are not user-friendly enough for my instantaneous-gratificationified ass, so the more regularly updated blog is here....

News coverage madness.

So yeah. The zine was in The Independent today, in a review of the London Zine Symposium. Craziness!
