NEWS!

*In a few weeks, a few of us from the MVPD crew will be going on the Letters & Poppet tour around the west coast, so you should come out and say hi if we're coming to your town. In addition to sounds and performance antics, we'll have a table full of interesting things both on and not on the distro (handmade bags, one-of-a-kind postcards, dolls, magnets, hair clips, alongside the expected tapes and zines and things).
*Our friend Charlie Zaillian (from Chung Antique) recently wrote an article on Pierced Arrows for the Seattle Times!
*Our dear Ms Alexis Wolf had an excerpt from her Hyena in Petticoats zine republished on the Vindication of the Rights of Mary blog.
*One Minute Zine Reviews has been doing a number of write ups and radio spots for various MVPD zines.
(and i think that's all).
