How would I go about creating and publishing a magazine?

Question

I really would like to create and publish a magazine for teens/young adults about music and music news. How would I go about doing this? Starting from scratch, so step by step instructions would be helpful. Thanks to anyone who can answer!

Answer 1

Write a bunch of articles. Call people up to see if they'll run ads in your zine, so you don't have to pay much out of pocket. Print however many zines you'll think you'll sell. You can do that yourself, or at Kikos or Staples, or one of those places. Then you want to send one or two copies to one of the bigger zines that review zines (so you can sell some more then locally with any luck) like MRR or Flipside.
