I got a bunch of new zines in the mail today to read!! And I have been writing a lot the last few days, for two different zines I'm writing, Bookstore Thief #2 and a so-far-untitled zine that will be interesting tidbits about all the places I've lived. Or maybe part 1 of all the places, as there are a lot.

I'm caught up listening to Alex and Derek's Nobody Cares About Your Stupid Zine podcast and so I'm participating in International Zine Month. Yesterday I ordered zines from 3 distros I hadn't before, and today I've put together pkgs to send my zines to 4 different distros!
My New Zine Bookstore Thief

Hi Everyone,
I just started a new zine called Bookstore Thief, after being out of the zine world for about 15 years. Back in the day I used to write a zine called Every Girl's Dream. Anyhoo, this one is mostly bookstore adventures, as in working in them. One day I got robbed at gunpoint. And that is how this zine came into being. You can buy a copy at my etsy shop, or I might be willing to trade for your zine. I like… Continue

Amazing Sunflower said… - Hello again! Never heard back from you about where I should send my bookstore story so you can decide if you want to use it. Please let me know. If you don't want to use it, I want to post it on my blog.

- Thanks for your message. Good to hear from you.
Is there an email address I can send the bookstore story? If you want to add me as a friend here, then we could send each other email. However you want me to contact you is fine with me.

- I have a story that I just dug up. It might be to risque for your zine. It's about sex in a closed bookstore and includes curse words. I understand if you are not interested, but please let me know. If you have no interest in using it, I am going to post it on my blog. If you want to read it before you decide, that's cool too.
