~Editor's Intro for the July 2005 issue~

Dear Readers,

The weekend of July 15 i traveled to
Philadelphia for
the greater glory of LitVision Press and the
Underground
Literary Alliance. I met Jack Saunders, who is my
favorite living writer and (coincidentally?) author of
Bukowski Never Did This, the new book from LitVision
Press! Only $12,
click this link for ordering information
and support the arts, cheapskate! Damn Internet
readers never buy anything...except porn and oddly
shaped pieces of toast on Ebay. Am i right? Then prove
me wrong! This is your chance to
pretend LitVision is
Amazon.com, and my chance to dream that instead of
an unemployed bum, i'm millionaire CEO of a giant evil
corporation!
Order! Order! Order!

I wasted so much time ranting about internet
commerce---or the lack of it when it comes to buying
cool stuff---that i have no energy to tell you about my
weekend in Philly. Fortunately, i wrote and edited a long
report on it (complete with pictures for our Attention
Deficient friends) as a
ULA Monday Report! Please click
here to read about my adventures in the literary city of
brotherly love. For my five loyal readers i will add these
tidbits that aren't in the ULA report...in Philly i got to
meet cool e-zine editor Jackie Corley of
Word Riot and
narrowly missed meeting
Roy Rubin of Prose Toad, who
stopped by my table (while i was wandering around).
Roy also
bought Bukowski Never Did This ...because
he's not cheap!

Below is a photo of Jack Saunders and myself at the
LitVision table at Philly Zinefest. This photo was taken
by Matt Dembicki of
Wasp Comics, a cool guy we met
there (who also bought the Bukowski book). Below
you'll notice the cover for
Bukowski Never Did This,
which is a great epic that you will order before you
finish reading this sentence, even though no one ever
follows the many commands i give in my monthly
Editorial Intros. Bastards!
Order my book!

Humbly Yours,

Patrick Simonelli
