abridged now available
Hi Everyone. Hope this dosen't count as spam! If anyone remembers a few months ago I put the call out for poetry and art for me little magazine. Well it's finally appeared, albeit a month or so late. It's free and has people like John Hegley (damn fine poet) and George Shaw (damn fine artist) in it. It will be available in various Irish galleries (and a few London ones) in the coming weeks. If anyone would like one sent to them pm me and I'll send you the details. Not sure if I'm allowed to put the postage address here. If i am I will in another post. Though it's free if you could send £1.50 in stamps (to cover postage) it would be great. If you haven't £1.50 I'm sure I can still manage to get a copy to you, but the stamps would help. We don't get paid for this! Not sure if there's any HLers in it! But it's damn fine. Again, hope this isn't spam! Ta!

Oh I remember, you're fine, we know you're not spam
I've got a load of (blue) 2nd class stamps with no price on, how many of those d'you reckon is £1.50?

Ta! Ah I think if you send 5 or 6 that should cover it! I'll give the address if that's ok: It's Abridged c/o The Verbal Arts Centre, Stable Lane and Mall Wall, Bishop Street Within, Derry BT48 6PU. I know the request for stamps is a bit unusual but it makes life easier for us! Ta again!

Ah all the public ones in Derry (now), Belfast (in the next week or so) and Dublin and Galway (when I get round to it!). Me distribution system is a bus and a box! Ah only occasionally poncy!

BTW "Bishop Street Within" sounds like something from London Below in Neil Gaiman's Neverwhere

Ah it does! A good book! Coincidentially am reading Anansi Boys at the moment. Derry's a walled city, and we're based on the bit of Bishop Street that's inside the walls. Not sure that many people know about the 'Within' bit though!

I just finished 'Smoke and Mirrors' which was fabulous but has nothing to do with the topic on hand so I'll shut up now.

Ah I think you might have trouble with the stamps. If you send me your details I'll send you one anyhow. Always glad when people are interested in the mag!
The Chancer Corporation
The mag will be winging its way to you on Monday!
The Chancer Corporation
Mark and Being. Your mags are on their way. Sorry for the slight delay. The post is really bad around here also. Sigh. I remember the time it appeared twice a day and once before nine in the morning. Hopefully the abridged will arrive with ya quite soon!
The Chancer Corporation
Good stuff. Hope you like it!

abridged arrived here today in perfect condition ... ... so thanks a lot...abridged wrote:The mag will be winging its way to you on Monday!
Had a look at it, already, and liked the pictures and photographs very much,
especially those of George Shaw, Feargal O'Mailley, Conor Mc Feely and Maria Connole ...
Didn't get to reading much of it, yet, apart from the last poem by John Hegley
which somewhat reminds me in rhythm of that This Corrosion cover mentioned
under ... http://www.myheartland.co.uk/viewtopic. ... 665#487665
... with the slight difference that the accentuation which rather deterred me from that
cover song, seems appropriate and somewhat amusing to me in the context of What am I? ...
Thanks a lot again, I'm sure I shall derive quite some joy from this wonderful magazine for a while ... ...
Bollocks. It's spam in a werewolf's clothing. More caffeine Mr. Fiend?markfiend wrote:Oh I remember, you're fine, we know you're not spam

And you know that she's half crazy but that's why you want to be there.
Glad you liked the mag Being! Am non spam but perhaps turn into were-spam every full moon!
