At last, at last

Perhaps a little overdue, but stocked nonetheless, our online store is now up-to-date with all our new mid-March titles. Leap into the larder and find editions of Winged and Limbed, fluttering and a-swinging. Among the spiced nuts find Round, Circle, Dot, rolling. By the manuka honey, Pattern, my sweet. And high up high, copies of Prattle, scoop, trembling, the printed edition, are roosting.

You will also find copies of Dove, love, wash, Flippered and flightless, Duck in, duck out, and Here, there, from 2017, alongside our earlier fare. So, for those of you who couldn’t make it along to this year’s NGV Melbourne Art Book Fair, pop to the pantry to top up your zine collection.

Grab a handful of grapes, a bushel of oysters, and a noggin of bottled ale while you are at it. Eight new zine titles for the year, all for you to feast upon. Make merry! Make haste!

And on the zine front, Louise and I are delighted that editions of Twenty-four: a compilation box of zines, 2015–2016 have recently been acquired by the State Library of Victoria (edition 2/5), the State Library of New South Wales (edition 3/5, bubbled), and the National Library of Australia (edition 1/5, snug).

You will also find our new zines, and earlier titles, within the boxed wonder that is Sticky Institute. Head down, and explore.
