The original part personal / part work / part pencil review zine Pencil of the Week is back with the latest issue, #14.  This one features a guest artist for the cover and and contributor filling out the final two weeks.

I joined up with the Posse awhile back and recorded a podcast with em'.  For an hour you can listen to me talk about pencils, zines and my undying love for New Jersey.  Listen to episode #118 here podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/art-supply-posse/id1119393753 or anywhere you like to get podcasts from.

Over the last two days I've been putting up a bunch of new stuff

I don't don't what the hell took so long, but The Word Distro is now officially in the Liz Mason business.  Liz, of Quimby's bookstore fame, has been doing Caboose for a good while now but we just got into the game over here.  Each issue is about a different topic and all are wonderful.

Two new zines from Billy McCall including his debut CD w. zine (or is it a zine w. CD?) Handshakes, Fist Bumps, etc...  Three more from Liz Mason.  What's better than one awesome zine about awesome things?  How about three of them!  And finally last years issue of We'll Never Have Paris which is great because if you haven't read it yet, it's still new to you.

Yes, there are other things that come out of Philadelphia and one of them are zines!  I got a nice lil' offering from Joe Carlough and independent publishing partner in crime Katie Haegele the other day.  Check out the shop for more info. Also peep out Joe's site for some great lo-fi fun thisandthattapes.com/releases

Let's get personal up in person!  Wear a mask, wash your damn hands and c'mon out for a good time at the drive-in.

For those of you interested in which pencils I liked the look, smell and feel of, the new Pencil of the Week is up in the shop now.

Happy to announce that 404 Magazine Volume 1 is back in-stock and Volume 2 is brand new!  See the shop for full descriptions.

That's right!  March 30th is National Pencil Day to celebrate the date that Hymen Lipman patented a pencil with an eraser back in 1858.  You can celebrate pencils any day by picking up the complete first volume of Johnny Gamber's Pencil Revolution zine.  Check out the shop for full description!

This is my favorite type of zine - educational and entertaining.  The author Justin takes you terminus to terminus on both the Grand Valley Transit #1 bus line ( Issue#1) and then the #1 subway line in NYC (Issue#2).  You're getting two zines for the price of one here plus it's glossy full color throughout the entire zine!  Peep it out in the shop.

Happy to announce that The Word has a few multi-packs of the amazing Thrifty Times in the store and starting in April we will be carrying new issues!

Pumped to have these two gems back in the shop.
