publish the zine I contribute to

My head filled to bursting with pride and happiness last night. I’m still in awe of the response to our efforts. I have no words… We are definitely going to do this again.

in the middle of finishing the layout. goes to print tomorrow. finalizing party plans and inviting. eleventh hour. leave comments if you want me to e-mail you with directions to the venue. [must remember to solicit cafés and shops for space to sell the magazine.] very tired. must sleep soon.

Ugh. Delays, indecisions and mistakes. Last-minute additions. Changes of paper. Changes of size. Changes of layout. Fun! (Or at least I keep telling myself it is.) I also have to plan the party, invite loads of people and set up the venue. Finally, I have to find places that want to distribute the damned thing…

I plan on staying home and working dilligently on the layout tonight. Hopefully I’ll get some writing done, too. It would definitely be easier if my home were clean (and not looking like it’s been bombed by evil cats), but if I begin that endeavour tonight, the magazine will go down the drain entirely. One goal at a time!

well, we’re behind schedule (again/still/i’d give up but we’ve already come too far), but with any luck, the cover will be at the printer’s before this afternoon. which means that the layout MUST be done this week-end. egads. i still have no idea how it will be paid for.

We have a good deal of content, plus a bajillion photos from one person, and this week-end we’re hoping to get the layout for the cover done, at the very least. The cover has to go to print on Monday. Oh, have I mentioned that we have no clue where we’ll get the money to pay for this yet?
