Kind of a good/freaky parallel...I'm curious to know how this year's would look like for the three of us then… hope not too DEPRESSING at least haha

Thank you for reviewing Shards! I look forward to reading your next issue. Not just for the review, but because it's awesome! And thanks for participating in Zines for Troops. I suggest sending 1-3 copies of whichever issues you wish to send, and then they'll go out in a few different shipments. Or just do whatever. Hey--I can't remember which issues of Shards I sent you. If you remember, will you let me know? And then I'll send you a few different ones. I didn't remember to write it down.

At 12:52am on May 11, 2013, Kari Tervo said…: Hey there Eggplant! I absolutely love Absolutely Zippo, and I'm wondering if you want to participate in my volunteer project, Zines for Troops! I'm collecting zines and sending them to military members and injured veterans. You could donate however many issues of Absolutely Zippo, or even make space for some new zines by sending some of your old ones. If you donate, you'll be placed on the Honor Roll, and I'll send you two custom 1" buttons. All the info is here: http://wemakezines.ning.com/profiles/blogs/zines-for-troops-donations-needed

Thanks for considering a donation! No obligation--I just think your zine is great and I would love to distribute it to some people who need to chill out!
