That's an exciting list. Can't wait to see it when it hits newsstands* everywhere!
*Or whatever.

Yes indeed; a fine list of contributors. Count me in for a copy in purple velour boards with a pink corduroy colophon.

Those are all gone, sorry. However, we're having a special on editions bound in sea turtle shell and oily pelican feathers. There's been a glut of these particular materials lately.
No extra charge for the oil... which is nothing to sneeze at when you consider how much oil costs these days.

How about shipping to Europe? Is it the same?
Yes, shipping is the same to anywhere in the world. Even Bulgaria.
A big thanks to everyone who has already pre-ordered their copies. About half of the 200 copies have already been accounted for, and we haven't even finished printing yet.
We are indebted to Bill at BoS Press - he spent a good portion of his weekend letterpressing the covers for us. Thanks, Bill!
The first issue should be ready to mail within about 2 weeks. In the meantime, here are a couple of preview pics.

for $5 seems a sin and if this doesn't sell out then truly there's little wisdom in this world.

Milk 1 will sell out easily.
The editors know what they're doing.
A 700-1000 run in the future is just realistic.

I am going to buy a few copies. It would be well worth buying more than one copy of this. Think about how cool it would be, in 5 years, when these are impossible to find, to give one to a friend and get them started in the world of the small press...
Or, you can look at it like this: In a few years, these copies of #1 will be sold at a premium....

To Marina, Is there a plan to sell subscriptions? The up side is that you know how many copies will be presold, the down side is that you often will spend the money before the issues are printed...

Can't wait to read this new magazine. I also love the cover. It is a labor of love.
looking forward to holding one of these in my little grubby hands.
I'll wash my hands first.

Beautiful cover, the works. Nice job.

My feeling on this is that we should commit to the first 4 issues (one year) and then evaluate whether we will continue. If yes, at that point subscriptions would be viable. I haven't talked to Josh about it, but if after a few issues we decide not to continue and have unfulfilled subscription obligations, that could be a pain in the ass.
Thanks. Wait until you see the contents... some very strong pieces from some very talented poets in there.
Looks great so far. My order for two is in.

I will buy the remaining 100 copies.
But before I can send you the $500, I need you to send me $500 via Western Union so I know you are legit. Once I get the $500 from you, I will deposit $1500 into your PayPal account.
The extra $500 is for your trouble. It comes from the estate of my Great Uncle, who was the Nigerian Minister of Coal and Corrugated Cardboard. He died in a coup attempt and left $504M USD in a trunk that I had to ship to Pennsylvania in order to have it properly counted. In my misery and grief it was a blessing to have an American volunteer to help me with the task.
God bless you in your endeavours!

Sounds good! But first, so that we can verify that you're legitimate, we'll need you to post a photo of yourself sucking on a goats tit while holding a baby bottle in one hand and a sign in the other that says "ME LOVE ME SOME MILK, BWANA DEVIL!"
As soon as you do that we can proceed.
