103.2 distribution countdown


The Fall issue launch is a go, the magazines soon to be in reader's hands and on their coffee tables all over the province, all over the country, and all over the world.* And speaking of stuff from Newfoundland turning up in potentially unexpected places, have you seen this intriguing website, newfoundlanders aboard? A great way to keep updated on who's where and doing what. Back on the home front, there's a new reading series launched at RCA's Second Space, and I caught Dave Sullivan's** brilliant Bed, Breakfast & Beyond there yesterday. Another dozen or so events are planned; what better way to spend a Sunday afternoon if you're in downtown St. John's? (And it only costs $5.)
This week we'll be doing our retail distribution, an ever-growing network. If you're in Twillingate, we're at the Iceberg Shop and the Museum.If you're in Halifax, check out Atlantic News (great spot; it's also a cafe and they have music performances, too.) Strolling down Bloor Street in Toronto's Annex? Passing by Book City? Why, just turn your head and look in the window and - hey - could it be - the Newfoundland Quarterly, as I live and breathe!

*Once you see the gorgeous cover you're going to want to view more of Jean Claude Roy's work; he has a show opening at Emma Butler Gallery this week and you can see works online as well.

**No relation, although I do have a brother Dave, and would have no objection to being related to this playwrighting Dave Sullivan also.
