where are the mamphiles?

I've gotten confused about when and how to get my hands on the mamphiles. Is a hard copy coming to me via connie? And a pdf, via? b/c I'd love to make several copies here and sell them around Seattle Did the new orleans gig alrady happen? how did it go? excuse my ignorance, I haven't slept in 2 weeks so everything is a little foggy....

Yes, its 4 dollars again! I think its like one or two pages more than last issue, but right around the same size.

thanks all! I'm feeling better, actually went to the doctors even, but it was just a bad cold (one that nocked me on my ass) is all. eee :)

hay!

back from NOLA, (was wonderful!) I've been very sick ...sorry, for that out of commition (coughing like walking neumonia kinda sick)

I am going to send the original mastercopies to Connie - she will have the best ones , to make copies for contributors and make a PDF for everyone.

Go ahead and send out the call, it looks fine, I'm ready to take orders, I zeroxed a batch for myself to fill orders before I would send the best hardcopy onto connie

i'm on my way to the post office, I think I might overnight the mastercopies ...will tell you when I get back.

Its beautiful. a table next to us, dude read it and was like gonna cry and wanted it for his distro. I really want this in all of y'alls hands.

china's computer can't make

china's computer can't make pdf files. She doesn't have the software to do that. So she's going to send a hardcopy to anarchohippypunk mama, who is going to send out the contributor copies. If anyone else wants a clean mastercopy to make xeroxes, they should PM china.

AND, if anyone has the capability of turning the zine into a PDF, they should let us know!

Sometimes paper is the only thing that will listen to you.

pdfs

i had told china i would be able to make pdfs as well and get them out to everybody. i think regardless of who does it, the master is going to have to be scanned in,which may or may not mess with the quality, we've done it with a couple of cut and paste red pills and they turned out fine. let me kno if i can do this or is someone else might want to.
i also think that the LM bloggy thing looks good--thumbs up : )
peace

IIRC, Trula might be able to do a PDF. let me see if i can find it...

yup, see here:
http://www.mamaphonic.com/node/1718#comment-8409

so does that mean Trula would need a scanner in order to make the PDF? or is the document email-able?

Depending on what software

Depending on what software it's in, I might be able to PDF it (pagemaker 6.5 by any chance?). But it might be pushing my "incidental use of office equipment" clause a bit far to scan the whole thing in...wouldn't be great quality anyway.

On the other thread

On the other thread (promotion and distribution) I posted a blurb I wrote that Literary Mama will post on their blog. Can someone please take a look and give it the ok or suggest changes?

And should I just wait until I read here that orders are ready to be taken before sending that blurb along to LM?
