there's only been a little interest in this. so far three people have said they might like to write an article or contribute pictures. it would be fun to have people from other countries involved but i don't know how to go about that as i don't currently know anyone from another country. so if you happen to be from another country leave me a message or something.
'believe it or not, george isn't at home so leave a message after the tone, i must be out or i'd answer the phone, where could i be? believe it or not i'm not home'
right. so anyway, i'm only going for an A4 page this time, i thought about half that size but small fonts discourage people to read things. i've also thought about printing it on scrap paper but then i'd have to change the paper in the photcopier and that's just a bit too much to deal with really.
i haven't really put much thought into what i want the articles to be about but perhaps just current issues like what you might want for lunch, movies reviews, short stories and poems about talking fish, recipe's, dictionary definitions for really weird words. i might draw up some ideas for short comic strips too.
think i'll write an article on the art of procratination - i'm getting pretty good at it.
i want to start a Zine. i have looked long at hard in every newsagency to find a magazine that actually has interesting articles and nice looking pictures. but all i have found is gossip, advertising and offensive skinny people. so, that where's the zine comes in. bobby has already said he'll write something for the for issue, i will have to i guess, but i think i need a few more bits and pieces to work with. i don't have a camera to play with so there won't be any nice pictures in the first issue. unless i use some old ones....that could work. i don't have a name yet but i could just not have a name or have a box at the top to write your own name in. maybe that would make it more personal and a bit interesting. i'm even wanting to pick it up now and it hasn't even been made yet.
robert, ryan and kaia visited today. it was fun. you really find out who are your real friends when you move far away because they are the only ones that can be bothered to come see you. all the others only like being your friends when its conviniant (sp?) or you're providing free alcohol and chippies.
my mother sent up some soup and juice.
i wish life was as easy as soup and juice.
