The KiScon con zines have a long and beautiful tradition, going back to 1980.

Over 200 fanworks – fic, art, poetry, plays – were submitted to these zines over the years.

Some of these fanworks have since found their way to the AO3. We try to gather as many as possible in the dedicated AO3 collection: KiScon – The Official Zine. If you contributed to the KiScon con zine in the past, please add your work to this collection.
