And I would have made it, too, if it weren’t for this meddlesome plane flight.
So. Um. No. 5, Act IV? Not so much. Not yet. —We’re flying back east for a bit, and internet connectivity will be spotty, and while I’d hoped to have the rest of No. 5 fully dressed backstage, ready to step out at each appointed hour and never you’d know the difference, well, it isn’t, so much. They will be Fashionably Late.
And then there’s No. 6, “Anvil.” There was to have been an intermission before No. 6, and I was to have been telling you about it shortly, so. There will still be an intermission, until about (rifling through the calendar) let’s say Monday, November 13th; it’s just the break won’t have been as clean as I might have hoped.
But let’s not dwell on the negatives! Subscribe to a feed, if you haven’t already (here’s LiveJournal, and here’s everyone else); that way you’ll know the moment the wayward conclusion appears. And feel free to be bemused by the following:
- The first issue, “Prolegomenon,” is being carried by a distro: North West Zine Works, who’ve written up a review and everything. (You can rate it, if you like.)
- Copies of all four chapbooks are available at Reading Frenzy, if you’d like to pick one up and hold it in your hand before purchasing. (At least, they were last time I checked.)
- The first four chapbooks have also been added to the library at the Independent Publishing Resource Center, which is just upstairs from Reading Frenzy, which makes for convenient delivery runs.
- I’ll be at Stumptown, which is going to be huge. I won’t have a table to myself, but the Spouse will, as well as a number of the Best Cartoonists in the Western Hemisphere, and there might be occasional bits of Rose-swag tucked here and there among the comics, including the paper debut of No. 5, “Freeway.”
- I’m very, very sleepy at the moment. Did I mention that?
- And I should probably figure out how to turn on comments. At least on the news posts. You think maybe?
