Now accepting pre-orders the shipment with my loyal printing group from issue 1, is doing the printing as we speak, They will have the shipment to me on wed-next week. Then I will be doing the binding on thursday and friday. Shipments will go out on that following monday.
I was a little late getting this to print due to a variety of new works, an upcoming book and moving.

Only 100 copies were ordered this time around. The next order date for a new shipment is in a month.
So I am now accepting pre-order reservations, to hold spots.
If you were in the zine, a free cd will be sent to you. But feel free to get a hardcopy, just let me know!

You may purchase here, on ebay or at my website located to the right of the blog page!

Magic and Joy!
Lisa!
