Amanda - Layout Mod
She/her, 41Hey everyone, my name is Amanda and this is my first fan zine. I've always thought zines sounded like fun, but never had the time with work, etc. I finally decided to throw my hat in the ring. I've been a fan of Trigun since maybe 2007/2008. Favorite characters are Vash, Meryl, Milly, Elendira, and Knives. I have experience in graphic and layout design and will be working as the layout mod!
