My Own

could use more use more quality literary and artistic contributions appropriate for an egoist, individualist, anti-capitalist anarchist paper.

I’m interested in short essays, stories, poems, rants, humor, etc. (1000 words or less).

I would also like cartoons, line drawings, easily reproduced gray-scale artwork, etc. (I can’t do color).

If you’d like to present something for me to look over, send it as an attachment to: My_Own@lavabit.com.

I have a few needs and wants for carrying on this project and making the pamphlets as I would like.

The more pressing needs are:

1) a new internal hard drive for my computer;

2) a new manual paper cutter capable of cutting more quantity than the one I have;

3) materials for making rubber stamps;

4) pigment ink pads for stamping on dark card stock;

5) more card stock for covers.

Less pressing needs:

1) pre-made rubber stamps;

2) a laser printer (to make on-demand copies of pamphlets);

3) book-binding material;

4) materials for making linoleum-cut prints.

Wants:

1) a small hand press for printing covers

2) small silk-screening material for printing covers.

This is why I am offering these options to those who would like to support this project on a substantial level: For $20 you will get a 12 issue subscription to My Own plus a pamphlet a month for a year. For $50 you will get a 36 issue subscription to my own and a pamphlet a month for three years. For $100 you will get a life-time subscription to My Own and a pamphlet a month for life (my life, that is, since I won’t be publishing anymore once that ends). Of course, the direct contribution of any of the above tools will also get you pamphlets and issues of My Own.

Here is the spring 2012 catalog of pamphlets and chapbooks currently available from Intellectual Vagabond Editions:
