A handmade zine about First Kisses.
Compiled, edited and designed by Marisa Meltzer & Elizabeth Spiridakis. You want one!
This is a DORKY photo but gotta shout out to girls still making zines - Marisa (mwah) Meltzer and Elizabeth Spiridakis(s) - its awesome and such a great idea! Number 404 - I love it and well, I just got super excited.
So not DORKY! Let us return the shout out! And read and dance! And make out! Okay, now we’re exhausted!
Hunter Stephenson had more game when he was 7 years old than at any other point in his entire life.
Although he was convinced that he could get any girl, woman or MILF to love him, he gave his…
The link above takes you a cool new piece from NYU News about the zine. They singled out Hunter’s story, which is like a Southern telenovela inside the mind of a devious 7 year old! Dare we say, Kenny Powers would approve?
Thank you dearest darling mother! She secretly ordered First Kiss for me behind my back after telling me I couldn’t order it. Basically my night is going to be spent watching online tv and reading about first kisses. Some of which sound too perfect to be real and should be reenacted by humans over and over again.
Your darling mother has exquisite secret taste! And we couldn’t agree more with your last sentence. We’d also like to see Marcel the Shell reenact a few of our faves…
Enjoying summer means catching up on my favourite reads. A little late on this one!
Elizabeth Spiridakis (aka White Lightning) and Marisa Meltzer’s FIRST KISS zine. Love it.

ADORABLE story from FK reader B.L.:
holy shit dude
i was reading FK on the tram going home tonight and this babe schoolboy sat opposite me. good jeans, cute harry-potter scarf, guitar in a case that he moved constantly so as not to have it fall against me. he also looked like a plain old melbourne musician, except for the school name on his jumper.
so i was reading the zine, and got a call from my friend. he and i are working on a zine and we talked about stuff and i told him about FK and how much i was digging it.
then i hung up, kept reading, and got off the tram.
i started walking down the street when DREAMBOAT UNDERAGE BABETOWN called after me (romantic comedy as!) and asked for my phone number. he gave me a kiss on the cheek and ran away with his bulky guitar case.
next issue = “Last Kiss” ?
WE ARE DYING!!!!
Dear Pete Anderson, Thank you for making the best thing I have ever seen in my entire life. You are a hero among heroes. I wish you a life of joy filled with puppets in disguise.
Much love, Elizabeth
ps for those of you on whom this reference is lost, PLEASE watch this 600 times and die of happiness.
pps He made this for FK contributor Lesley Arfin..I die.
“Hmmmm… Chemistry or First Kiss?! The pictures attached are of me reading First Kiss when I really should have been studying for my chemistry exam. “
Thank you, Amy !
