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.

At 7:03am on January 18, 2009, 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.

At 10:58am on January 6, 2009, Amazing Sunflower said…: 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.

At 3:13pm on January 4, 2009, Amazing Sunflower said…: 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.

your zine arrived today and it looks a great read, i will enjoy reading it very soon. just spotted your craft creations, wow, they look really nice. i love to make stuff also, and have just started getting the urge to start making stuff yet again after such a long time of nothing. i will be mailing a zine to you soon. i may add a little crafty something along with it.

At 5:04am on November 30, 2008, Bird in the Hand said…: I'd love to read your zine. Sounds very intriguing. I make a perzine about my day to day and things that interest me. I have various titles of what ends up being pretty much the same zine :) so I am happy to send one off to you for a trade if you're into that. Please let me know yr address and I should be able to get it off to you in the next week or thereabouts.
