If you contributed to Silent Type 2, your copy is on its way to you in the mail (provided I have your current address). Here are a few photos taken by co-editor Brandon of the ST2 production line (for which he deserves all the credit. Without his help, there would have been no ST2).
Hope you enjoy your copy. I will soon have information about how to get extra copies for those who want one.
Notes:
- In the copies I have already sent out, a poem appears that should not have been included due to a miscommunication. It will be removed from subsequent printings. It is "During the War" by Ed Skoog. Apologies to Mr. Skoog for the error.
- Since no printing is complete without a typographical error, please go to the credits page of your zine and draw a copyright symbol © just before "2010" in the line "All contents 2010" ... so, it should read "All contents © 2010..." I will write those in to any future copies I send out but the ones I just shipped off don't have it.

Strikethru, has anyone told you that you are amazing!
Sacred blue!
I love it when a print comes together...
That is awesome!
You are awesome!
Wow, these look beautiful. Can't wait to have one in my hands.
I am so happy to see this! I'm honored to be a contributor
I might actually swoon. Is swooning still in fashion?
But here's my question: haven't you been, like, really busy recently? Like, with other issues?
Amazing. Simply amazing.
Thanks everyone! I am pretty excited that we were able to get this thing produced. I really had my doubts at times.
Well DM, I did rush to beat the clock in terms of finishing the content prior to arrival of the baby, which I did accomplish by one day. From that point on, my friend Brandon pretty much busted his ass on all the printing, cutting, and stapling tasks, and I only had to toil on the assembly line briefly and make a few trips to the post office. I say this a lot, but he was the true engine behind getting this thing out the door.
Incidentally he and I did a zine called Uberhoot back in the 90's (here is a blog entry about it, although the pictures don't show anymore: http://www.tiny-dog.com/old/art_uber.html).
Cheryl,
You are amazing for managing to get this done on top of all your other obligations! Huge thanks to your co-editor, Brandon, too. We really appreciate you and your efforts!

Awesome job. They look gorgeous. Can't wait to see it in person!
Pretty kitty, by the way...
Amazing, like always. Strikethru you're such an overachiever!
Mine arrived yesterday and man, is it purdy! Nice work, Strikethru. Thanks to you, Brandon, and to all the contributors. What a rad project!
Mine arrived yesterday; I stayed up too late in the evening reading it. She's a beautiful zine; an awesome job was done, congrats.
Okay, now we get to hear all the West-Coasters brag about how they got theirs first. Everybody East of the Mississippi take some deep breaths; it's gonna be a bumpy few days.
Strikethru, Silent type #2 arrived and I have to thank you for this impressive labor of love. It shows!
The photography and design provide a rich stage for the poems. And nice to see two Dutch words appear on page 54 (‘per luchtpost’)
Cheryl,
I sent you $5 and a zine for a copy, but didn't contribute. Did you get these? If non=contributors can buy a copy, please let me know what the price is. Thanks.

I also would like to know if non-contributors can purchase ST2 either through you or Microcosm. I bouth ST1 through Microcosm, and I love it!
Through the magic of forwarded mail, I finally received my issue.
Pure, undiluted magic.
Kudos.
Can you tell me how to order a copy? This looks fantastic. I just found some old typewriter manuals and posted photos of them on my blog. My mom always typed and I have a special fondness for typewriters--and zines.
I am still seeing whether Microcosm will be selling Silent Type 2 (note-- they will have Silent Type #1 in stock in two weeks or so). If you want a copy please write me with your address. Unfortunately due to production and mailing costs they are $5 each unless you contributed. (For the record I am definitely not making a profit off of this venture...)
