a place for zinesters - writers and readers

Who is going to the Portland Zine Symposium?!

I booked my flight and registered for a table the other day! I am super excited. I haven't been to PZS in a couple years and I really missed it. Who else is going?

I'm not sure if I'll be in town but let me know. I'm on shift at the IPRC every other Sunday.

I wish I were going to the Portland Zine Symposium. I am sad that the Symposium is in July and my trip to Portland is in August.

Speaking of my trip to Portland in August, any of you Portland zinesters want to get together with me while I am there?

Also, if anyone has an extra copy of that Zinesters Guide to Portland (not sure of the exact name), I would love to trade something for it, even if you want it back after my trip.

I'll be at the symposium, but I'm not planning on tabling. I've only been once before (in '07), so I'm excited to go back.

I'll probably stop by, I'm going to be hitchhiking all over the northwest at this time.

I would SO love to attend the zine symposium in Portland!! but my silly fear of long-haul flights does not allow me to :(
Let´s hope I get rid of it one day... since I have even missed out on job opportunities (Montana, Ohio and Toronto) because of that. Arrgh...

Off to check out Alex´s interview!
Have fun all of you in the symposium and write a wee chronicle when you are back ;) please. Oh! and post pics too.
