Be A Zinester

I'm not sure if we were supposed to read this for this week or not, but it was on the syllabus, so I did.
To me, it seemed like Moore was sort of bashing everyone else who's ever written a history or zines. Like she was the only expert and only person who knew anything at all about the legitimate history because she worked for Riot Grrrl. It was sort of annoying to read her just tell us that no one really knew the history of zines. What makes her the expert? And is anyone an expert on anything really?
One thing she said did stick with me thought, but probably not in the way she wanted it to. she said "work against mainstream culture to bring their unique voices to people..." and "tell the kinds of stories deliberately ignore, glossed over, or entirely forgotten by mainstream media." This is how I feel about the novel's i write. I try to write about things that aren't widely known about or understood, or at least write about things that I have strong opinions over.
I'm still really not into the whole zine thing. It's just not my thing, I guess. Not that I don't think that some are interesting but I just don't really enjoy reading them. As far as writing goes, I don't really enjoy reading a lot of short stories either, just novels mostly. And the same goes for my writing.
But anyhow, this article basically only told me what I already knew from reading one of the article we had to read before, but then she tried to un-legitimatize it. I guess I really didn't get a whole lot out of it. But no one can like every article that they read.
