I had a busy weekend. Hope yours was good.
Over on Loviatar, christian is talking about how his new zine is available on eBay. This seems like an interesting idea to me, and a nifty way to distribute zines in general. It made it easy for me to just dip into my Paypal account and pay for a copy. Reminds me of going into the local (Seattle) lefty bookstore and picking up punk rock zines in the '80s. Go in and impulse-drop 50 cents for a couple of badly-xeroxed, handmade magazines, probably put together at someone's office job working for a lawyer or nursing home. Of course, the price has jumped a bit, since it isn't badly-xeroxed on a work copier and inflation has made prices change a bit in the intervening quarter century.
Man, I remember those days.Not in Seattle, but in my area. Something very cool about badly xeroxed magazines.
ReplyDeleteYeah. Hand-typed, badly-xeroxed, full of ideas that might be good or might be stupid. Awesome.
