COSMOS
A Yoongi Ship Fanzine
(CONCLUDED)
Hello, and welcome to COSMOS, a digital fanzine dedicated to all Yoongi x BTS Member ships!Recently, this year on stan Twitter, fans began associating the rap line with different symbols: Namjoon as the moon, Hoseok as the sun, and Yoongi as the stars. So the theme of this zine is to reflect that association! The theme is based on the stars and that can be taken as literally or figuratively as you wish! COSMOS is for-charity/non-profit, where all proceeds will be donated to an organization voted on by contributors. The zine will be low-cost, and will feature SFW content in the main zine, with a bonus add-on zine with NSFW content for a few extra dollars.We're excited to have you here, celebrating all of these different Yoongi ships! ⭐
* COSMOS: a Yoongi Ship Zine has concluded! All zines and bundles have been emailed out and the final donation has already been made. For more information about COSMOS and how we wrapped everything up, feel free to use the following buttons to navigate your way through. Thank you so much for the support! <3

What is the rating of this zine?
The main zine will be rated T while the side-zine will be rated E for NSFW content! When purchasing COSMOS, you will have the option to purchase the NSFW side-zine on top of the SFW main zine! So the NSFW content is optional for you!How many writer and artist slots are available?
Currently, there is a planned 14 writer and 21 artist slots!What are the themes planned?
Recently, this year on stan Twitter, people began associating the rapline with different symbols: Namjoon as the moon, Hoseok as the sun, and Yoongi as the stars. So the theme of this zine is to reflect that association! The theme is based on the stars and that can be taken as literally or figuratively as you wish!What is the application/review process like?
There is currently an application process which will be provided as a Google Form! The form itself will provide you with the necessary information on how to proceed through the application process, so you can check it out there! :)Can I collaborate with someone on this zine?
Of course! However, since as of right now, we are likely going to hold applications, collaborating with someone on this zine means you must pick someone to collaborate with who has also applied and been accepted!Will COSMOS be printed or PDF?
COSMOS will be a PDF since it's hard to garner enough interest to purchase a physical copy of a ship zine!What are the zine specifications?
While the zine is currently planned to be digital, we will be following the same A5 format we would as if it were a physical copy! Two versions will be offered: a double page spread as well as single page, so consumers can pick how they would like to view the zine.Is there a Discord server for this zine?
There is! Discord will be the main form of contact from us to contributors, so please make sure you have an account ready or make one when it's time to join! Emails will be sent out as well if you really do not want to have a Discord account, but Discord is just a bit easier.How many words are you looking for in written fics?
It should be between 1,500 and 4,000 words! This is a bit of a gap we understand, but since it's a digital zine, we have a bit more play room!Who are the mods? Do they have experience?
