There are a few new things coming from yours truly. That is a strange phase\u2013but we’ll get into that another time. Starting this week (still not sure when) I’ll be posting the first issue of ‘Phase’. It’s a monthly thing, more personal than this, and an attempt to get back to a more zine-like publishing style (looser, less-inhibited, fun). Before the end of the month, in conjunction with my magazine, Tails Of…, I’m starting a newsletter called ‘Skate Book Club’. If you are as smart as I think you all are, I think you will understand what that is. If not, it’s a newsletter (email) that will showcase the best and brightest in skateboard publishing (books). If this is your thing, get over to TailsOf.org<\/a> and sign up for the updates. Anyway, let’s get on to the matter at hand, links…<\/p>\n\n\n\n
