that as of 2006 has a separate reading log.

2001. Really more of a newsletter than a zine. Out of print.

I have a new one-off, called Things I Wish I'd Known Before I Had My Baby: Advice from Mamas to a Mama to Be, which is a comp zine I put together for a friend's baby shower and then added to for another friend's 3 months later. (I am not a mother myself and am unlikely to ever be, in case you're wondering.)

In 2005 I also did a wedding zine, with my spouse, Eric Goldhagen called Partners and the Partners. (Partners is our cat.) The zine is quarter-size, 12 pages long and not for sale, but if you've got a really compelling reason, I might make you a copy. It has the schedule of events, our wedding promises, FAQs, lists of things we like about each other, responses on the question of marriage from 3 married anarchist couples, our officiant's bio, and a whole lotta thank yous.

Bluestockings and Quimby's also carry my zine--when I keep them stocked, anyway.
