    Re: Time Line re Artella Spring 'Zine Swap is happenin' for sure!

     If your 'zines are in the mail by April 10, you are fine with our deadline. If you are running a little late, well, life happens! Just let me know if you are going to be late. I promise I won't berate you.

    Artella Spring 'Zine Swap is happenin' for sure!

     My "grunge" zine has managed to jump to 24 pages.  Egads!  How did that happen?  It's going to cost a fortune to print.  It's all in color, and I print them on my inkjet printer.  I've got to go buy some ink before I can even start printing them.  My wife will definitely hit me over the head this time!  [:'(]  But for those who are making zines for the first time, you'll find out how quickly you get hooked.  I can't wait to see what everyone has done this time!

    Happy Monday,

    Bill

    Thanks!

    Hey, Donna--

    Just went through all recent emails and I can't find it. Which doesn't mean it's not there--I just can't find it! But I don't remember seeing it. Please send it again to patriciawileys@gmail.com -- I'll watch for it. Thanks!

    Pat, I didn't think to ask if you got my email. Normally I don't think I have to ask. If you didn't get it, my address will be on the package I send as well as on an insert within it.

    Re: Artella Spring 'Zine Swap is happenin' for sure!

     Donna, we'll miss you in this zine-go-round, I hope you can be in the next one!

    Okay, zinesters--this is the final list I have:

    Cheryl
    Melydia
    Merrikate
    Desire2Reinvent - Mary
    Chris Tessnear
    Marrianna
    Bill Charlebois
    bfahrenbac  - Bo Withdrawn
    annamarie
    Pat W Shafer
    Donna Withdrawn
    Aunt Bobby
    harqn2 - Lori
    Heather
    Rennata
    copper cat
    Judy
    ajna

    That's 17 (unless I can't count)...  as of 3/11 , that's 16

    Bill--HELP! How can 17 people get a set of 10 zines without shorting somebody? How did you manage the "shortage" in the first swap?

    Because I have limited sorting space for 17, I'd appreciate you holding off on mailing until the last week of March (if you've already mailed, never mind).

    Make a pile for each person.  Take the zines and lay them out one at a time in each pile, making sure nobody gets their own.  I did this quickly in Excel:

    Cheryl: Melydia,Merrikate,Desire2Reinvent,Marrianna,Bill Charlebois,annamarie,Aunt Bobby,harqn2,Rennata,Judy
    Melydia: Cheryl,Merrikate,Desire2Reinvent,Marrianna,Bill Charlebois,annamarie,Aunt Bobby,harqn2,Rennata,Judy
    Merrikate: Cheryl,Melydia,Desire2Reinvent,Marrianna,ajna,annamarie,Aunt Bobby,Heather,Rennata,Judy
    Desire2Reinvent: Cheryl,Melydia,Chris Tessnear,Marrianna,bfahrenbac,annamarie,Aunt Bobby,Heather,Rennata,Judy
    Chris Tessnear: Cheryl,Melydia,Desire2Reinvent,Marrianna,bfahrenbac,annamarie,Aunt Bobby,Heather,Rennata,Judy
    Marrianna: Cheryl,Merrikate,Desire2Reinvent,Bill Charlebois,bfahrenbac,Pat W Shafer,Aunt Bobby,Heather,copper cat,Judy
    Bill Charlebois: Cheryl,Merrikate,Desire2Reinvent,Marrianna,bfahrenbac,Pat W Shafer,Aunt Bobby,Heather,copper cat,Judy
    bfahrenbac: Cheryl,Merrikate,Chris Tessnear,Marrianna,annamarie,Pat W Shafer,Aunt Bobby,Heather,copper cat,ajna

    Pat W Shafer: Cheryl,Merrikate,Chris Tessnear,Marrianna,bfahrenbac,Aunt Bobby,harqn2,Heather,copper cat,ajna
    Aunt Bobby: Cheryl,Merrikate,Chris Tessnear,Bill Charlebois,bfahrenbac,Pat W Shafer,harqn2,Heather,copper cat,ajna
    harqn2: Melydia,Merrikate,Chris Tessnear,Bill Charlebois,bfahrenbac,Pat W Shafer,Heather,Rennata,copper cat,ajna
    Heather: Melydia,Merrikate,Chris Tessnear,Bill Charlebois,bfahrenbac,Pat W Shafer,harqn2,copper cat,Judy,ajna
    Rennata: Melydia,Desire2Reinvent,Chris Tessnear,Bill Charlebois,annamarie,Pat W Shafer,harqn2,Rennata,copper cat,ajna
    copper cat: Melydia,Desire2Reinvent,Chris Tessnear,Bill Charlebois,annamarie,Pat W Shafer,harqn2,Rennata,copper cat,ajna
    Judy: Melydia,Desire2Reinvent,Chris Tessnear,Bill Charlebois,annamarie,Pat W Shafer,harqn2,Rennata,Judy,ajna
    ajna: Melydia,Desire2Reinvent,Marrianna,Bill Charlebois,annamarie,Aunt Bobby,harqn2,Rennata,Judy,bfahrenbac

    (Sorry about the weird formatting - Excel is not my friend.)  The only one I had to finagle was the last person to avoid her getting her own zine back.  Hope that helps.

    Re: Artella Spring 'Zine Swap is happenin' for sure!

     That's exactly what I did when I hosted the swap.  I made a pile for each person, and made sure they didn't get their own zine back.  As long as no one sends extras, it works out fine.  Big Smile  If anyone sends 17 instead of 10, it will throw everything off!  Oh my.  I finally got my new ink, so now I can print my 10 copies.  Yay!

     THANK YOU, THANK YOU, MELYDIA!!!  Confirmed my thinking--I figured if I 'fessed up to my ignorance, some kind soul would take pity on me! LOL...

    Bill, thanks for encouragement...

    Actually, in the above scenario, I get my own zine back. Surprise
    Be you - and no one else.

     No you won't. After all the piles are assembled, I'll be sure I'm not sending the artist their own zine back. If nothing else, I'll send one of my extra Goddess zines...

    Hugs,

    Pat

     Was just checking back through my emails. I missed noting her email to me--Bo has withdrawn from the swap. We'll miss you, Bo! Maybe next time you can participate.

    My bad, copper cat - but I'm sure Pat will be more careful about that than I was in Excel. :)
