It's getting printed as we type

So we finally made it to the printers. It took some smooth talking but we will get exactly what we want. It looks so nice. It seems like we have been working on this issue forever, which we have. Since the entire editorial board, production team and sales department is comprised of just me and Ashleigh, things take time.


I'm just waiting for the call to go pick up the freshly printed copies. Ashleigh is currently throwing herself off a bridge in Whistler. Don't worry, she's just bungee jumping.

After we put the order in for the printing, we went across the street to celebrate. And celebrate we did.

Of course, we ended up talking about feminist theories and the idea of the ever-persistent "dog's club." But that's neither here nor there.

I'm excited to see everything when it's finished. Just like the last issue, we will be adding a few hand-made touches. We might even machine sew the binding. Now wouldn't that be interesting? We still haven't found a cheap long-reach stapler, even though we've been keeping our eyes open for such a wonderful zine tool.

So, keep in mind that in a few days you're going to have to shell out four bucks for the latest issue of Hacksaw, okay?
