illustration by René GruauToday’s the day we interview with that newspaper – ooh la la. It actually feels like a pretty big deal (though we’ll have to see how it goes). It’s the only major paper in the city we’ve never been in, and it’s a national, so it could be good for sales.
I have to say, it’s been an interesting five years. We’ve gone from complete unknowns to, what? Better-knowns, I guess. I remember going out with that first issue, proverbial hat in hand, practically begging retailers to carry us. Now we’ve got retailers and subscribers all over the place; Australia, Spain, Japan. We’re no where near famous, but we don’t have to beg for shelf space, either. That’s a relief.
I still don’t have anything to wear. I should stop waiting for that to change.

ps: Have opted for harem jeans, necktie, and combat boots… I know you care.
pps: Went really well, I think. Even though I looked like Chrissie Hynde at a Harry Potter convention. Har.

I care. If you hadn’t said anything, I probably would have asked.
Good luck with the interview! I’ve said it before, but it really amazes me how the magazine has grown in the time that I’ve known you. It’s very, very cool.

So glad it went well! (And, in the choice between looking like Chrissie Hynde and Harry Potter, Chrissie Hynde wins. Definitely.)
