Ravenswing was a great success today and Cat and I really enjoyed our time in Ottawa. Many thanks to the beautiful, hard working people who put it all together and to Colin for being a great host and table mate. To be honest, I was pleasantly surprised by the diversity and enthusiasm of the crowd. My perception of Ottawa as a sleepy government town has certainly shifted a bit.

I was happy to see fellow Montreal zinester Lisa Hoffman there with a ton of new work on display and reconnect with fellow Concordia grad Catherine Pearce who’s been making some beautiful jewelry pieces.

Sincere thanks to everyone who put down some hard earned cash to pick up a zine or a poster today. I’d love to know what you think of them, so please feel free to contact me. We’ll definitely be back again next year, hopefully with a new issue in tow.

Check out some more pictures here of a damn fine day.

PS. So Good was very good, thanks for the reco John! The Pepper squid was exquisite!
