The Queer Language of Flowers, Zines

New Zines: Queer Language of Flowers 2 and Gay Goth Jock

Posted by LM on

The Corners of Their Mouth Press is proud to belatedly announce our two latest zines:

Both are available in our Etsy store and at events. We are currently working on setting up a non-Etsy shop on our website, so stay tuned for that.

The Queer Language of Flowers, Volume 2 (2024)

Photo of the cover of The Queer Language of Flowers Volume 2 zine. The risograph-printed cover has the text in pink, an illustration of a pansy in yellow and blue, and a decorative floral pattern with a green background.

A zine for all the horticultural lads, the pansies, the plant gays, the cottagecore lesbians, the buttercups, the lavender menaces, and everyone else who loves queer flowers. In this follow-up to our first Queer Language of Flowers zine, you’ll learn about the pansy craze, the Red Rose Girls, and more.

  • 8.5 x 5.5 inches.
  • 32 pages

Gay Goth Jock: A Perzine from the Depths of My Personal Hell (2025)

Cover of the Gay Goth Jock zine, which features a risograph-printed collage of a human skull with a crown of red roses against a mausoleum.

A personal zine about 1. Being bad at doing just one thing, 2. Having a late-30s goth phase that wasn’t a phase, 3. Swordswomen and the nonbinary femmes who love them (me), 4. Understanding toxic behavior around policing gender. Content warning for discussions of abusive relationships, eating disorders, and friend breakups.

  • Risograph printed by Paper Press Punch in Seattle, WA (color cover, black and white interior)
  • 8.5 x 5.5 inches.
  • 32 pages
  • Staple saddle stitch binding
  • Notable: I made the cover art! It was originally an analog (read: cut paper) collage.
  • Printed thanks to the generosity of my patrons.
