Excerpt: I always had this fear that I'd break them. That happened to a girl once in PE while we were playing soccer. I'd never known you could break those things. Really, I'd never paid much mind to their existence at all. Now there they were, broken through the skin, screaming white at the sky, fearing their exposed existence. Despite that, I was suddenly aware of their very elegance.

Hey, I threw together the first birls community a couple years ago, which I had to abandon due to lack of the net, and I just want to say that I heart you for producing a zine. This thing has gotten ginormous.

I was wondering whether you know any illustrators who would be interested in my friend's project- she needs somebody/s to illustrate her webcomic, it's based on "Queer as Folk" but the names are changed and the characters are younger (non-for-profit, obviously)- can you help?

Hi! I do know illustrators, but most of them are post-grads who only work on commission and don't really have the means to do free work right now. Is it a paid project? I'll keep racking my brain and thinking of people.
