1. Cover Contest Winner

Huge thanks to our cover contest participants! Weren't their entries amazing?! And many thanks to everyone who voted! It was a tight race between all the entries, but a winning entry did emerge...

Congratulations to our winner, Griseldajane, for her cover contest entry receiving the highest points in our contest!

An updated version with a revised logo and cover text will grace our final fanzine!

2. Last Chance to Send Updated Materials

Here we are with only a few weeks to go before the 30^th on the 30^th. As I work through the layout and design of the fanzine, now is the absolute last chance to send in any updated submissions, avatars, and bios. From what I've seen so far, many participants are promoting the sites where they lurk. If you wish to add your portfolio site, deviantart, tumblr, or whatnot, send over the details by tomorrow, Tuesday, April 16^th, 2018, 11:59PM EST.

3. What's Next?

On Wednesday, April 17^th, 2018, I'll be visiting a local printer to get a color print of all the pages and to do a quick layout check. With any luck, the colors will all look as close to expected as possible, and I'll be able to prep and send the file to the online book printer to start the process of procuring a final product. Keep your fingers crossed that all goes well!

In summary:

• Congratulations to our cover contest winner, Griseldajane!
• Last chance to send any updated submissions, bios, or avatars is Tuesday, April 16^th, 2018, 11:59PM EST.
• Wish me luck that all goes well with the test print on Wednesday!
