the next excursion

will be
a west coast tour...

san diego, la, then off to portland for the portland zine symposium on the 23rd and 24th of august.

the next five weeks are going to be a rotating madhouse frenzy of knitting, sewing, zine writing, and let's not forget my budding interest in distribution.

i recently met Meals of Baby Cakes, who is not only the percussion section of the band but also a zinester in her own right...i'm trying to light a fire under her ass to get the next issue of her hot-Asian-women-in-rock-and-business zine done so i can bring it with me.

i'm soliciting everyone i know who wants to, has, and will write/make/create a zine to let me sell it/them at the symposium. i'm also looking for music makers who want to sell cds or be included in my zines as a cd insert.

meanwhile i'll still be taking my apparel design classes at Apparel Arts. i'm making the final skirts to complete the first (longest, and most excruciating or so i hear) section of the class after a ridiculous 8 months. the next sections are not painless, but will certainly be less time-consuming...


upcoming: pictures! works in progress, latest zine creation, and the best fabric i've ever found at SCRAP...

...also - the life and times of my housemate micah and my foray into self homeschooling. our class is now in session - The Monumental Me: Toward a Path of Self-Discovery, Self-Reflection, and Self-Re/Creation through Theory and Praxis. if you want to enroll in the class, space is available. virtual students encouraged! we have a virtual commuter already in NYC. course syllabus will be posted soon.
