I’ve just added some new BLT t-shirt designs to the BLT Zine Omnibus Kickstarter page. We’re probably going to need to get supporter feedback on which ones people want most. I have a bunch more designs to complete, but I really like these. BLT zine artwork by our cool collaborator…( Read more )
As I continue to delve into internet records of BLT, I keep coming across all sorts of neat things. The site Zine Wiki uses a Wikipedia sort of interface to cover all sorts of zinester history. Topics range from zinester stalwarts like Aaron Cometbus to the less expected Billie Joe Armstrong…( Read more )

It is going to be all Throwback Thursday in here all month. Here is a baby picture of me and Forrest Black exhibiting at one of Bruce Evry’s Fantek science fiction conventions in the 1990’s. You can just see part of the first Xmas issue of BLT on the table, so I am guessing that it…( Read more )
This weekend saw the launch of my Kickstarter project BLT Punk Humor Book 25 Year Black Leather Times Zine Omnibus. BLT was the first zine I did as an . . . well, I hesitate to say it, but as an adult. It is one of the creative projects I am the proudest of working on. A lot of great people have…( Read more )
