There is indeed a completely assembled and printed entity that you may call Space Squid<\/span> issue 8.<\/p>\n

It’s been a long hard last few days, making sure that everything came together to make this thing of beauty that will yet again redefine literature as we know it. Here’s some photos of our ordeals.<\/p>\n

This is editor D doing last-minute grommeting of the Space Squid official banner.
\n
\nYou see the grommet kit has a special squashing tool and an anvil that conforms the two brass pieces of the grommet into a single unit.
\n
\nNeat, huh?<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, editor Steve is inside the Space Squid<\/span> headquarters doing all the work.
\n<\/p>\n

This morning I had to fix our photocopier, Sanjay2. He had developed a bad streaking problem that was only getting worse. You may find some copies of issue 7 floating around with these streaks along the top and bottom margins.
\n<\/p>\n

So, basically I had to pull out Sanjay’s guts. It took me twenty minutes to figure out the latching mechanism that released the photodrum assembly.
\n
\nThere was of course extensive use of my beyboard.
\n<\/a><\/p>\n

I wish that each and every one of you knew how to do photocopier repair, so you can know how it feels to have the innards of a living organism in your hands, and then put them all together again and have it live and copy like new.<\/p>\n

Here’s Sanjay as he prints off the inner-pages part of issue 8.
\n
\nIt’s going to take a couple weeks probably to get through my closet stock of paper, but 2000 copies of Space Squid<\/span> will eat straight through this.
\n<\/p>\n

So those of you going to Armadillocon, you can expect to hold a Space Squid of your own within the next day. If you aren’t, then it might take a little while longer. Contributor copies are going out between Monday and Wednesday. Everyone else, you’re going to have to figure out where the nearest Space Squid drop is. Or send us a donation, and I’ll make certain that you get a copy.<\/p>\n

I am glad that this issue has finally gone to press. It’s on time, it’s extra large, and it’s a damn fine issue with damn fine fiction. Can’t imagine anyone doing better.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
