Invitation - 5

[Maxima Strange]

I would like to invite 5 people interested in receiving a new zine based on daily life. It’s a diary called DISPATCHES FROM THE GREAT BLACK SWAMP. I plan to do several of these for a year. If interested, please comment below. Sorry, because of the cost, I can only do a run of five zines at a time.

Hi Ilya, I like photos of desolate landscapes or city scapes, snow scenes, holiday scenes, mythology, folklore of Russia, illustrations of fairytales, animals, art, portraits of writers and artists, that sort of thing. I would make collages of any materials you send and post them here at IUOMA and let you know when I post. Thank you for offering.

Dear Maxima,

You have written about the high cost, which somewhat limits publishing opportunities. Do You want me to send You materials from Russia without any claims to my own copy of the zine?

Let's imagine... You just use my Moscow materials... and then show a photo of the magazine on the website of the IUOMA, that's enough for me. If such a contract suits You, explain what exactly I can send for Your magazine. I didn't quite understand what kind of visual materials Your zine needs.

That sounds great! Thank you, Sil!

[Sil]

amazing thank you Maxima.

I'm looking forward to it and will send you a magazine I am working on about my last trip.

[Maxima Strange]

Thank you, Sil. You are #5 and this completes the line up. I will be sending out issue one as soon as my envelopes and special rubber stamp arrive in the mail. Should be a week or so.
