I'm taking some time to organize my files before things get busy again and I found some old zine shots: Cover of melt the snow #12 (two toned linoleum print)
A more lengthy post will come soon once holiday madness dies down a little, but my zine is now officially available at Learning To Leave a Paper Trail distro. Ciara's description includes a line that basically sums up my entire aesthetic approach to writing:
"i like it when people recount things in a kind of obsessive way. "
Happy holidays. Keep warm and remember that the more butter in your meals, the better.
Had planned on seeing the Coen brothers adaptation of "No Country for Old Men" , but turns out I'm not the only one who felt compelled to stay wrapped up in pajamas for the entire day and is now too reluctant/cozy/lazy to brave the cold Montreal winter to make it to the theatre.
In zine news, "Cement, Flour, Saints" will soon be distributed by Learning to Leave a Paper Trail distro, which is one of the smartest and sharpest distros around. I have never been disapointed by any zine I've ordered from Ciara, so I'm really glad she's interested in distroing me. The subscriptions she's offering would also be an awesome Christmas present for those of you with ziney people in their lives.
I'm Teri Vlassopoulos and I live in Montreal. My day job is an accountant, but mostly I like to make things. I used to write the zines "melt the snow" and "The Second Part". Now I focus on fiction. My first collection of short stories will be published by Invisible Publishing in Fall 2010 and I'm documenting the process of creating it on this blog.
