New Quitter book review and news
The Quitter book received a new review in the latest issue of Zine World (#27).
Quitter: Good Luck Not Dying: Compendium of the first five issues of Quitter zine, in a nice hand-sewn hardback, with dust jacket and stickers. Trace’s essays wander appealingly and wittily around, as he searches for something real in our cosmetic world. Issue #2 is the standout: Trace flies over the Midwest, musing over cultural impermanence. I liked this greatly, but however nice the book and stickers are, $19 is more than I would have paid for it.
Making books is not what I’m looking to do with my Spring and Summer. It is more of a Winter project, a project that I failed with horribly this year. I am behind on books – way behind. If you ordered a book recently, you will get it within the next few weeks.
So I am again looking into getting the book printed in softcover, either through a self-publishing avenue or by a publisher wanting to run with it. All options are open, but I simply can’t keep up with a hand made book…
If anyone out there knows of a publisher, is a publisher or just wants to help out, let me know.
I will continue to offer the paperback version as well as individual issues, but I am taking the hardcover version off the shelf.

Try being a quitter of perfectionism and start recognizing your awesomeness, babes.
I have a couple of extras if you need them but I will need to have them replaced!!!!!!!!! Can I help you do anything with the books?
