We sell prints, zines and stickers in Fosfor. We will refer to these as the “product” in the text below for the sake of simplicity.

• For products to be sold through Fosfor, they must be self-published, i.e. not be published by bigger publishers. If you are uncertain what we mean by this and if it includes your works, send us an email and we can explain.
• Product image, dimensions and weight are needed to put the product up for sale. You cannot skip it. All form information except presentation texts are required in the form. However, we recommend that you write something short about yourself and/or the product in the presentation field.
• You don’t need to send any copies of the product to us until something has been ordered, in order to save on shipping costs for you and to prevent the spread of infection.
• Be sure to enter an email address you frequently check so we can get in touch with you quickly.
• We want to be extra clear that we do not pay for the shipping to us from you, as we have no such resources for this.

Do you have any social media for us to link to? = One link to either Instagram, Facebook, website, something else or nothing at all.

Do you have an alias you’d rather use? = An alias, also called pseudonym or pen name. What you state here will be shown instead of your legal name.

Presentation text about yourself = En kort text om dig själv. Presentationstext är helt valfri. Vi kommer i regel inte att hitta på en text om du inte gör det själv.

If you also sell it in other places than Fosfor, this is the number of copies you can guarantee will be available for orders through Fosfor.

Upload a product-ready image of your fanzine = Follow these instructions to produce pictures we can use in the shop:

• Don’t send the digital file of the cover, we need a real photo or scan taken of your fanzine against a white background.

We will publish everything, and we will try to do it in time for the official date, but it depends on the amount of products we receive, so the earlier before the deadline you register your products, the greater the chance that all of them will be included in time for the target date. If you send us info before the deadline, at least one title/person will be guaranteed to be published in time (probably more).
